UGA Rivals editor says Vandy players in revolt and opting out

CFLCane said:
You don't have to say anything, nor do you have to watch the game. But here you are, triggered by a girl kicking for an 0-8 team with no HC and 1 game left.

Sure it's pandering but there is most certainly a girl out there capable of being a better starting kicker than 1 of the 120+ college kickers out there. It's probably not this girl but she opened the door for the next one. BIG ******* DEAL.

If you don't want girls trying out for kicker on your team don't go 0-8.

So when is a male track star going to demand to run on the female track team.

Did she “demand” it or did she try out and get chosen by the defunct HC? The HC didn’t have to let her play. You guys are too sucked into this “us poor men are getting phased out” line of bullshyt.

That team is a giant vomit chunk, and it has nothing to do with that chick.

See, I was okay with the whole situation, but I keep hearing it was more than just a replacement kicker. Earn the job and play. End of discussion.

My D3 undergrad college had the first female kicker in CFB back in the 1990s. It wasn't a publicity stunt, there really weren't any dudes who were willing to try out to kick (it's D3, no scholarships). I think it made some national headlines, but it's weird that back in the day it wasn't hugely controversial that a woman was playing college football. Fast forward 20+ years and now the media is making a big deal out it. I don't know if that's just 24 hours new cycle needing something to talk about or if Vandy was trying to be special. Given that she wasn't the first D1 kicker, I don't quite all the controversy and coverage of this.

Say the same thing happened at Miami.

Do you think the players would be happy about this?
Assistant coaches?
Fans?

I think a lot of people are cool with it as long as its someone else and somewhere else. I wouldn't be pleased if this was going on here.

It went on here all last year with that hermaphrodite we had kicking last year. How about two years ago when we had a ghey mongoloid Punter?

They're going through a crap season and their HC just got fired. Seeing that girl, who had no business being on the field is getting all of the attention and the media is fawning over her would **** off most people that are affected.

Why do they think they should be getting any attention at 0-8 coming off a 49-0 rape?

I honestly could not give two ****s about whether the kicker was a dude, lady, or ladydude as long as they kicked FGs well. We're talking about kickers. The NFL is full of kickers the size of horse jockeys with strange accents yelling, "I kick zee ball!" who blow out their ACLs jumping up and down celebrating a 30 yd FG. It's not a huge leap from that to a lady kicker.

I don’t blame them. Imagine working your whole life to get a D1 scholarship, to get overshadowed by a PR stunt. Then Imagine that PR stunt yelling at you during halftime bc you aren’t cheering loud enough.

I hope she kicks off again Saturday and Kirby is enough of a d*** to tell his guys to pick it up and run with it. Let’s see how much she loves football when she gets run over.

I’ll concede for arguments sake it was a stunt and they have better options. So what. Their players are pathetic if they can’t roll with the lady getting a few kicks. It isn’t like she is even one tiny bit to do with them sucking. Roll with it fellas. It’s not a big deal.

When you bust your *** to get a scholarship and do everything to play your best and someone undeserving gets preference, it's a source of tension. It doesn't matter if it's a woman or if it's a booster's son who doesn't deserve it.

Look at how everyone was saying we had friction because seniority was rewarded over ability. Do you think that's any different?

They know the deal and I don’t blame the kids. The school was trying to make the main stream media cream all over themselves , nothing more than a ploy. Even these kids knew it was bs.

Bro; she didn’t even work for it!!! Clearly her leg is suspect! Like if u’re going to play the girl, she shouldn’t get a pass b/c she’s a girl & it’s a headline story. To me, that’s patronizing af. U want to be an equal? Then u earn ur chit just like the other scholarship young men. Can’t have that chit both ways.

Aight; let me stop.

I'm not sexist at all, I'd be equally ****ed if some ****** guy did the following. This is probably what pushed them over the edge:

Fuller was added to the team Monday after the Commodores lost their specialists due to coronavirus testing and needed a kicker. And her experience with the team Saturday went beyond handling the kickoff duties. With Vanderbilt trailing 21-0 at halftime, Fuller decided she wanted to address the team.

"If I'm going to be honest, I was a little ****ed off at how quiet everybody was on the sideline," she said. "We made a first down, and I was the only one cheering and I was like -- what the heck? What's going on? And I tried to get them pumped up."

She said she compared it to Vanderbilt soccer's SEC tournament-winning run, when the team was "cheering the entire time."

"I just went in there and I said exactly what I was thinking. I was like, 'We need to be cheering each other on. This is how you win games. This is how you get better is by calling each other out for stuff, and I'm going to call you guys out. We need to be supporting one another. We need to be lifting each other up. That's what a team's about,'" Fuller said. "I think this team has struggled, and that's been part of it.

"We really just need to build that team camaraderie where they can all lean on one another. It was an adjustment going from that team mentality where -- hey, we're all here supporting one another -- and I just wanted to bring that to this team."

Sounds like my ex wife when I refused to clap or stand for a **** poor play; lecturing me on the hard work those ppl put in, and it wasn’t easy to perform in front of us, and they deserve all our appreciation. Lol. Told her she owed me $150 or ***.
