Hi, I will be reviewing this against the GA criteria as part of a GAN sweep. I'll leave some comments soon. JAGUAR  17:38, 25 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Checking against the GA criteria

edit
GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
    The infobox image needs a caption   Done
    ""Bo" as a child was known as one to pick fights" - try As a child, Bo was known to pick fights (not sure if "Bo" needs quotation marks)   Done
    "In McMillin's day of iron man football, he was also a safety man on defense and a kick returner on special teams." - this needs a citation   Done
    "During his freshman year, McMillin was also on the track team; on April 27, 1917, he won the 220-yard dash at a Centre interscholastic track meet." - this too needs a citation . Hard to find one - the citation seems to be the medal
    " the five man backfield and the cockeyed T" - I have no idea what this means!   Done That's why they are called negligible. I added an explanatory note. Not sure what was "cockeyed" about it myself.
    The second paragraph in the Kansas State section needs a citation   Done
    Ref 1, 64 and 65 are missing access dates   Done
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
    No original research found.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

This was an interesting read. The article is well written and comprehensive, so once all of those minor issues are clarified then this should be good to go.   JAGUAR  13:14, 27 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks again. Any better?
Thanks for addressing them! I've just checked through it again and it meets the criteria, so I'll promote this now   JAGUAR  21:18, 27 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
