... that football player Levi Drake Rodriguez, considered small for his position, went on an "eat-as-much-as-humanly-possible diet" to be noticed by NFL teams?

Comment: There's probably a couple good hooks that could be developed out of the article...

5x expanded by BeanieFan11 (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 179 past nominations.

New enough. Long enough. 5x expansion. Reliable inline citations throughout. I couldn't check citations #1 and #2 (in The Athletic) as they're behind the paywall. Other citations do check out. AGF on the sources. Hook is interesting but it's cited to the Athletic; so AGF here too. A couple of issues: (1) his height is listed as 6-4 and also as 6-2. (6-2 was added by User Dogloverr16 on May 14th; his two sources are in conflict as well.) Issue #2: QPQ not yet done. Hybernator (talk) 00:41, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Hybernator: The Athletic articles should be viewable here and here. I'll make sure to get to the other issues soon. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:11, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - BeanieFan11, the two Athletic articles you posted are for your citation #2 (both by Kaylin Kahler). Citation #1 (Dane Brugler) still isn't there. The hook's quote isn't in either of Kahler's articles. AGF on #1 as of now. Hybernator (talk) 03:24, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - The two issues above have been fixed. Citation #1 is still behind the paywall so, the hook is still AGF. GTG. Hybernator (talk) 21:50, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Hybernator: Noting that I had based the hook based on the sources I linked. This mentions him eating "well under his eat-as-much-as-humanly-possible diet" on NFL Draft day, whereas the other one starts off talking about how he has to eat large amounts to get noticed by the NFL. Thoughts? BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:35, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the additional info. Until citation #1 is verified, I'm afraid, it'll have to be on AGF. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 03:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
