Davon House

(

• ... that Davon House was the first player in New Mexico State University history to record both a fumble recovery for a touchdown, and an interception for a touchdown in the same season?

• Comment: Going for my second DYK, expanded fivefold.

• The article is fine. Expanded enough within the proper timeframe, well referenced throughout, no plagarism. However, I don't think the hook is quite supported. Both references seem to say that House was the 1st Aggie to accomplish this since a player named Gary Jessie in the mid-1990s. That said, I don't think it is necessary for him to be the 1st player in school history to do this for the hook to be an interesting fact. I think the following would be interesting enough and well supported:

ALT1... that in 2009, Davon House of the New Mexico State Aggies scored touchdowns on both a fumble recovery and an interception return? Rlendog (talk) 01:07, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

You're right, I somehow misread the source :p. This hook will work also unless someone else can think of a better one. Huzzah! My second DYK. Edit: Also I have no idea why my edit summary linked to Fastily...--SKATER ^{Is Back} 01:14, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

• - ALT hook should be good then. Since I, as the reviewer, was the one who proposed the ALT, someone may want to reconfirm it though. Rlendog (talk) 00:31, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
