If that happened to me, I would be napping just like this dude.

My advice to most mortals who kick (except for Braden Mann) - once you kick the ball, run as fast as you can to the bench.

Apples and Oranges but, I remember watching the hype with Annika Sorestam playing the Colonial. She was literally the best player on the planet in women golf and second wasn't close.

Now this girl I am intrigued by her size and her athletic ability to play against the boys, in arguably the least overall athletic position on the field besides the referees.

If she does kick kickoffs, she damn well better hope they're fair caught or through the end zone, otherwise, she will get hit. I'm not saying guys are going to seek her out, but I am willing to bet someone will give her a welcome shove to the turf.

I'm willing to bet it's extra points, if vandy even scores.

As a dad of 8 year old twin girls who, along with my wife, is constantly telling our girls that they can be literally anything they want in life, I'm recording this game so they can see her. Kudos to Vanderbilt for giving her a shot.

I hope they don't want to be lineman.

I don't really care about the selection. Some people here are saying that guy athletes are, by default, tougher than girl athletes. While generally this is true, there can always be outliers. And besides, this is a kicker position, not a linebacker or lineman position.

Man, this board will have a meltdown if Jimbo did something like this.
Jimbo is paid a lot of money, for the entire term of the contract, win, lose, or draw. He has no need to do something gimmicky like this to save his job.
Pretty wild to think that the Vandy kicker was picked only because of the gender.

On the flipside, if there was a female player who was a bit of a freak athlete and can add to the skill level of our team, I'm positive Jimbo would pick her over all the other male athletes. He's already shown he's not gonna pander to a specific group during the whole BLM march during summer here. He's definitely not going to care about picking a female athlete if she outshines everyone in the position.

Obviously, this would be an outlier and there's a very low chance this will happen. But, if it does happen, Jimbo will most likely take the chance.

Her family is from Colorado City. Her grandfather was a huge Aggie. When he died all the Aggie bigwigs were at his funeral. He owned a grocery store in Colorado City from which he made a lot of $$$. He left 1/2 of the store to A&M.

I would be surprised if Sarah's dad---and maybe mother also--did not go to A&M.

She's the #1GK on the team that just won the SEC Tourney and finished the fall season #3 in the nation. If (big if ) she gets hurt that's going to be one pissed off soccer coach. Rightfully so.

Vandy isn't ranked #3 in the country. They finished 8-4, they were .500 before the tourney. They got hot at the tourney and won it. Also she's a senior, she may or may not be around in the spring when they play the spring schedule and Vandy goes to the ncaa tourney with the automatic bid for winning the sec tournament.

Also somebody on soccer board is saying she is transferring to UNT this spring

Just saw her on the field with other Vandy players.

She appeared to be about the proportional size as the holder, punter #95.

He's 5-10, 188.


She's from Wylie. Played for D'Feeters.

https://vucommodores.com/roster/fbsarahfuller/

They don't list he weight, but I'm guessing at least 180 lbs. She'll be fine.



EDIT - we may only see her once today with this Vandy offense.

It tickles me to read posts from people who garnered all of their female physiology knowledge from the Old Testament and 1930's housewife magazines.

Starting GK on an SEC soccer team , she is plenty tough enough to be a PK

Will Vandy even make it to FG range in this game?

It tickles me that a dude with an Old Testament name doesn't see how little things have changed in the psychology of man since the Old Testament.

Ken Seals is freakin horrible and those receivers aren't helping him.

Makes me worried about us today. With rust, we made this guy look decent.

too bad she's not the punter, she would have more action today than in a soccer game.

The Vandy QB slid five yards short of the first down and any defender to avoid contact. Not tough

I think they barely crossed it earlier and immediately had 4th down

So her big shot will be kickoff after half

My guess is Mizzou doesn't want a girl scoring on them

This is so 2020.

Girls don't belong in men's sports, period.

Where does this go next... baseball, basketball?

Next thing you know, college sports will look like co-ed intramurals.

You are right this is 2020 not 1820. She will be fine. It's kind of a stunt but she appears to be qualified. Or at least as qualified as the guy she is replacing.
So, next year, maybe Kumaar Rocker will pitch for the Vandy softball team?

I'm sure there are a number of male baseball players who didn't make the cut who could perform quite well on the softball diamond. Be careful what you ask for...

The is no female, nor will there be, who is enough of a "freak athlete" that would add to the skill level of our football team. Maybe at the junior high level or some small high school, but not at an SEC team level.

There are probably a half dozen or more guys on the Vanderbilt campus who actually played high school football as a kicker. She is a keeper on a girl's soccer team.

Women and men are different. Each are inherently better at things than the other is. That is ok. Men will always be more superior than women physically. I'm sure she's a serviceable kicker and if it makes her feel good who am I to judge. All that said, let's not pretend this is some wall being broken down. This is a publicity stunt by a coach that's about to get fired.

I will be impressed by a deep kick.
Expecting the other kicker or a squib.
On-side kick possible but highly unlikely.
You may not be a moron, but some people think you are.

Am I hearing this correctly?

Announcers stating first female to kick in power 5 game. Seems dismissive to throw Katharine Hnida under the bus, when she was the first female to score in an FBS game!

Did I miss something? "He's already shown he's not gonna pander to a specific group during the whole BLM march during summer here. He's definitely not going to care about picking a female athlete if she outshines everyone in the position." How did he not pander? What stand did he take?

Well, if we've learned anything in 2020, it's that the media will spin anything to meet their narrative.
