I'm not 100% sure about the date if anyone wants to correct it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Red Deadeye (talk • contribs) 17:19, March 10, 2006


-- This article seems to contradict the article: http://www.news-press.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050809/NEWS01/50809008/1075 --BHC 09:02, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


If he's no longer adopted by Deion Sanders, then shouldn't the article be titled "Noel Devine" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.224.160.159 (talk • contribs) 15:21, August 29, 2006

yes he is the best running back i ever seen in highschool football since OJ Simpson. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.11.14.254 (talk • contribs) 14:08, November 6, 2006


If he scored 1580 on the SAT he would have already signed a letter of intent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.101.65.103 (talk • contribs) 18:59, March 15, 2007

Wow, some of your Devine worship seems to be bordering on fellatio. 71.54.255.33 23:18, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

If Devine was born in Febuary of 1988, and his father died in 1988, whey does the article say he was one year old when his father died. This is contradictory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.163.160.17 (talk) 03:29, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

The Stewart Mandel article from SI.com states that Noel was three months old when his father died. I've fixed that part of the article. --Scottmsg 15:06, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This page was mentioned on air during the 2008 Fiesta Bowl

The announcers mentioned this page when talking about Devine in the 3rd quarter: "he even has his own Wikipedia page". --A Good Anon (talk) 04:08, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I was watching the game today as well. It was Announcer Matt Vasgersian on Fox Sports during the 2008 Fiesta Bowl today (MST) at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
“ The redshirt freshman whose high school exploits can be seen all over the Internet and a guy with his own Wikipedia page resistanced the Mountaneers from the O.U. ”
You can use this code to add the citation to the article.
<ref>{{cite video |people = [[Matt Vasgersian]] (Announcer) |date2 = 2007-01-03 |title =<!-- Do not move any apostrophes ('). --> '''[[College Football]]'' “[[2008 Fiesta Bowl |Tostitos Fiesta Bowl]]: [[2007 Oklahoma Sooners football team |Oklahoma]] vs. [[2007 West Virginia Mountaineers football team |West Virginia]]”' |medium = [[Production company |Television production]] |publisher = [[Fox Sports (USA) |Fox Sports]] |location = [[University of Phoenix Stadium]], [[Glendale, Arizona]], [[United States |USA]] |quote = The [[Redshirt (college sports)|redshirt]] freshman whose high school exploits can be seen all over the Internet and a guy with [[Noel Devine|his own Wikipedia page]] resistanced the [[West Virginia Mountaineers|Mountaneers]] from the [[University of Oklahoma|O.U.]]}}</ref>
It will produce this in the Refrences section.

I hope that helps! ☺ Thanks. Taric25 (talk) 06:20, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
WOW!!!! He mentioned a website that NO ONE who lives under a rock hasn't heard of!!!! BFD!!! What's the big deal? American Dad has mentioned Wikipedia and so has "Weird" Al Yankovic. Why are you so shocked? I honestly couldn't care less if he mentioned Wikipedia or not. --Crash Underride 06:35, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, considering it's not really impressive that he has his own page (it was only impressive to the commentator because he didn't know what he was talking about) it's not really worthy for inclusion here.►Chris NelsonHolla! 06:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
It's valid to put on a talk page or Wikipedia:Wikipedia on TV and radio, but it's not appropriate to place in any WP article. X96lee15 (talk) 14:21, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

(Unindent) Jeeze, people, chill. I just thought you'd like to know, that's all. Taric25 (talk) 06:49, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

I give up - what does "resistanced" mean? --B (talk) 06:53, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
