They don't appear to be a notable team, playing in a small, regional league. No sourced info so not sure it is worth merging anywhere. Potentially a redirect to university or league. Boleyn (talk) 16:41, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Fairmont State University#Athletics. Almost all relevant information is already located in that article. --MuZemike 14:34, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. NCAA athletic programs are virtually always notable. This team gets extensive and regular coverage and even some of the seasons for just the football team are notable. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: The athletic teams get coverage from local sources such as [[1]] and [[2]]. I'd say this meets the WP:GNG and should be expanded, not deleted. Let'srun (talk) 19:51, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per BeanieFan11 and Let'srun. Article should be expanded, not deleted or merged. Jweiss11 (talk) 22:19, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per BeanieFan11 and Let'srun; NCAA athletic programs, particularly at the Division II level, almost always generate significant coverage. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 00:22, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per BeanieFan and Let'srun. This is a notable program. The 1967 Fairmont State Falcons football team actually won a national championship. Cbl62 (talk) 03:46, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
