Please check for other multiple links - Penn, Baltimore Sun, The New York Times.

  - No. That was a question. I thought that the honour was a proper noun, and that it should be capitalised and placed between inverted commas. I'm not insisting that you should do it. I was merely asking
    - I do not believe it is suppose to be in quotes. I never see it in press releases. I am going to undo.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:09, 7 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

shouldn't Collegeinsider.com Coach of the Year be placed in inverted commas? And shouldn't the website be italicised?
