Not sure what the value of this article is. The history of the NCAA can be adequately covered at National Collegiate Athletic Association. The history of college football can be covered at College football and History of American football. Most of the college football history listed here is from before the creation of the NCAA anyway.

• Redirect to National Collegiate Athletic Association. The section on the history there is enough. If it were expanded, this article could be spun out, but currently there isn't enough info there to warrant a separate article. I have no problem with this article in principle.

• Delete Subject matter is covered elsewhere, this article is, at best, seed for an information fork. Carrite (talk) 15:45, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I think that the original intent of this in 2005 was to write an article about the nearly century long history of the body that oversees almost all university and college athletic programs in the United States, until it was realized that it had already been done. I guess that I do have a problem with the principle of keeping an unnecessary article around, and there's nothing here that needs to be merged or redirected.
