James is notable, if at all, only for a single event. The same information in the Adam James article is (unfortunately) also in the Craig James article. Bbb23 (talk) 19:29, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#College_athletes as media coverage is tied solely to his father's actions (and covered in that article as stated above). ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 00:22, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

keep he's had some in-game success, but it's rare. However, a quick google news search turns up 600+ articles, some of which are about him and his involvement with the event in question. Others are about his performance on the field. Looks like he's got one more season of play to go. I'm good with it.--Paul McDonald (talk) 00:25, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Significant amounts of material have been written about him, and he remains an active college football player for Texas Tech. FrYGuY (talk) 19:23, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete same reasoning as Eagles247--Yankees10 01:30, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Craig James. If not, delete per Eagles247.--Giants27(T|C) 03:12, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Eagles247. I'm not seeing non-trivial coverage except as it relates to the disciplinary scandal. According to his Texas Tech bio, he's totaled 5 catches for 50 yards in the past two years of play. Cbl62 (talk) 20:53, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to his father, Craig James. The text is practically already verbatim in his more famous father's article. Adam James is only known for one event. Otherwise, delete—Bagumba (talk) 08:04, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
