"An inspiration" ?
I give her props for answering the call of duty for her school but a 30 yard pooch kick is not groundbreaking or inspirational. It's average at best.
And Vandy is so bad she probably won't even have the chance to score an XP.

I think they mean an inspiration to little girls, not middle aged men on a football forum.Jack Bauer said:

She's a Texan, obviously.
Well played Bears2Canes
41-0 final. She got one kickoff.
Vandy got past the 50 twice and nowhere close to the goal line to finish the season 0-8.

It's all about insulting the men to virtue signal.
The more Left wing and radical the university, the more likely the men are to have their nuts sawed off.
Vanderbilt is officially a girls school.

So which effeminate male on the Vandy campus will suit up for the women's basketball team?Bears2Canes said:I think they mean an inspiration to little girls, not middle aged men on a football forum.Jack Bauer said:

Just goes to show ESPN, ever after poor ratings, losing subscribers and having to lay off hundreds of people, is still a hive of Leftist SJW.GrizBear said:That was ridiculous. There are plenty of girls who can kick better than that.gobears20 said:

Another example of the game turning into a piss poor joke.
Did she dress out with the guys? Any special equipment? )

20 years from now they'll be asking "do you remember where you were when..."
I look forward to much more of this ground breaking under the socialists.
Good luck to your sons and daughters in the world you're helping create for them

Listen...its either girls playing football...or the libs coming for your guns..be happy and stop your complaining
At least when Annika Sorrenstam made her ill fated attempt to join the PGA Tour at Colonial a few years ago, she didn't dribble her opening drive 120 yards into the right rough.
Geezus, these people.

Why didn't we know Sarah Fuller's name before she became a football player?
And while the potential history is certainly significant, as these articles pile up across the internet, I find myself feeling irked about the amount of coverage Fuller has received in her four days as a football player.
Why weren't people as interested in Fuller when she was a member of Vanderbilt's women's soccer team?
But Fuller's fast ascent and the news articles documenting it are representative of a larger problem that female athletes face in the fight for better treatment.
For male athletes to receive media coverage, the bar is not particularly high. But for female athletes to receive the same spotlight, it isn't as easy as just playing their sport.
Because men's sports are still treated with more reverence than women's sports, a woman involved with a men's team in any capacity typically receives more coverage than a woman simply playing her sport. (Bonus points if some type of glass ceiling-shattering situation is involved.)

And the media takes a feel good story and runs it to women's soccer=men's football.
I think NBC sports should only show women's college soccer and see how their ratings turn out.
Did not Katie Hnida ever get in a Colorado game?
Thought she did.

The lesson is simple. If an administrator from your university or athletic department leader asks you to put a female on your male sport roster, get ready to resign in protest.
Because you've lost your program and are about to get fired.

I'm betting ESPN #1 play of the day. Definitely staying up and watch the pooch. In fact going to get my year and a half granddaughter out of the crib for some inspiration.

Ineffective, but a neat urban legend.
Saltpeter or Petersalt?

You guys are some miserable sum*****es. And hilariously insecure ones, too.
If this threatens or offends you in any way, you are the very definition of a snowflake.

Vandy ends their season @UGA next week. Will be interesting to see if she plays again but I would predict she only gets the token squib kick and Vandy gets shutout again.
This. I hate it when R&P leaks over here. It's a positive story whether you like it or not. Just clap and move on like most of us have. Good for her.bear2be2 said:

Kathy Ireland already paved the way at Texas State. And she could kick the cover off the ball.
What was with the pooch kick? Is that as far as she can kick it? Was it to ensure that she didn't have to take part in a tackle? If the answer to either of those questions is "yes", then a woman still has not played in a power five game.
