It would technically be sexual discrimination if they slap their guy teammates on the butt but did not slap her on the butt. They'd be treating her differently because of her sex, so...slap away I guess???Quote:

Just proves it was a publicity stunt. Nothing was actually earned. I have no problem if a girl kicker wants to join the team in January, go through all the shitty practices, and earn her way but this is not that.Quote:

And even more so, it should be completely against the rules if she is on scholarship for soccer... it should count against the total allowed for football IF she received any scholarship for soccer.
I know, I know, it's a girl soccer player. But you need to consider the current cultural climate we are dealing with. Now, all you need to do is find a few decent football prospects, get them to claim themselves a "transgender" athlete and boom, you've got a girls' soccer team full of 3 ⭐️ & maybe even a few low 4 ⭐️ trans football players who collect soccer schollies and walk-on for the football team.
Bear Bryant and Johnny Vaught would be oh so proud !!
Well she is something no one else on thay team can claim to be, a winner.Quote:

They presumably mostly could have gone to a successful G5 program but chose a much more difficult route, presumably to either get a degree or to compete in the SEC.Quote:

Kicking and punting are different. But girls’ soccer and SEC football ... pretty similar.Quote:

you go woke, you go broke. It's that simple. And that's not a Rep vs Dem thing. I know many Dems that aren't woke.Quote:

I wonder what the Las Vegas odds would be that there would be ONE of ONE HUNDRED on the team that could kick the ball off. My last coaching position at Southwestern College in San Diego had skill guys kicking off just for fun?
That's the thing that makes it soooooo damn frustrating that this is manufactured, literally ANYONE on the team could squib the ball if that's all they needed.Quote:

That?s why it should never happen. The other players wouldn?t hit her. If you can?t get hit you can?t be on the field.
That story would be called "Game Over!"Quote:

He's setting up an argument that the entire team has low T and should get a medical exception to take steroid injections. That's the benefit of recruiting smart players.**Quote:

Ha, Ha. If true that tells you all you need to know about why Vandy football is what it is. What a dumpster fire they are. And Vandy women will not come out for national anthem. I'm fine with Vandy leaving the SEC, what an embarrassment.Quote:

There aren't full ride scholarships in college baseball??Quote:
