To you Sarah supporters, what point is she making???


Dec 12, 2020, 10:55 PM

No team is going to carry an "extra point specialist" which is the only conceivable role a woman could play in D1 football. And she has by no means proven to be even that skilled.

So, exactly what is "ground breaking" about her kicking a PAT for likely the worst team in D1 football? I don't know when the first PAT was made by a female, but it was a good while back. And, no, there's nothing special about a SEC PAT.

You have the mic.

Media seems to be having a field day with this. Her not so much. Give her a break I don’t think she wanted any of this.

exactly they asked her to try out


Dec 12, 2020, 11:01 PM

she did and they gave her the position..she had an opportunity and took it.

"they asked her to try out" is not an answer.
Why did they not ask her to kick the FG? Because she couldn'r make it is why.

Hey Sarah detractor, what point are YOU trying to make? That you're incredibly insecure?

This is a no-issue, feel-good story. There's no downside here, and no reason to get upset like you are. For god's sake, this is a woman that is going into a male-dominated sport and doing a nice job. It has to be hard, in all reality. But there she is, doing it. Good for her.

Vanderbilt was in a rough spot, needed a kicker that was in COVID protocols, and she is the best option, regardless of sex. And she stepped up, and here she is. That's a darn cool story! Good for her.

The world would be a better place if there were more people like her.

Dec 12, 2020, 11:23 PM

BS being shoved down our throats at every turn. She was not the best option and Vandy didn’t need a kicker in the Mizz game or this game. Their punter averaged 43 yards per punt against mizz. You are telling me the punter couldn’t kickoff or make extra points? I was a college player and a 8 year college strength coach in D1. The punter is always the emergency kicker. It was a stunt period.

If it bothers you that much, why read about it. You can skip any article on the computer, your phone, the newspaper _ i am pretty sure nobody is forcing you to read it.

I mean it could be. Spencer Benton could boom the ball and made a 61 yard FG for us. He was also 5/9 on XPs and 2/4 on FGs in his career. Off the ground is not an easy skill clearly. Also it is an 0-9 team so who cares?

1) worry about more important things in life.
2) is she making a point? I see an individual given an opportunity and she took it. Just like anyone else.

Now your point SHOULD be what's the point Vanderbilt is doing ... Sarah is doing exactly what she should be doing. Is vandy exploiting her for PR? Probably. Does the media want a story which has no downside during such a painful time period? Yes

But I think you should be worried about the impact this has on Sarah rather than her sitting around trying to pull one over your incel mind. She's just cog in a system.

She's done something no other female has done--scored a point while playing for a Power 5 team. Pretty simple.

It is symbolic of other, more meaningful barriers to women - that they can be broken down too.

It's not about the football, it's about the women.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It’s not helping women

Dec 13, 2020, 10:05 AM

when it’s so obvious one is being propped up where she doesn’t belong. That doesn’t help the cause. In fact, it moves things backwards if anything.

She made a fool of herself when she couldn’t even execute a kickoff and then ran off the field because she was scared to make a tackle.
Then she finally made an XP that an 8th-grader could make.

It’s much more effective when barriers are broken naturally because a person is qualified...not when they are forced.

Dec 13, 2020, 9:25 AM

who think this is so wonderful would be equally supportive if she were kicking for Clemson.

Let’s not stop there. What if Clemson had the first female baseball coach? You’d be fine with that, right? Yeah.

Dec 13, 2020, 9:36 AM

What harm is she doing??????

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

The harm is that she is being used as a pawn to promote a false narrative.


Dec 13, 2020, 11:04 AM

That false narrative is that women can do everything that men can do, at least as well if not better.

I don’t understand the point of this agenda. Men and women are different. They each have different talents and skills. They aren’t the same, and they aren’t supposed to be the same.

Should we celebrate the accomplishments of women? Absolutely! Women are amazing. Should women be discriminated against? Absolutely not. But insisting that women are equal in all things, and using situations like this female football kicker to “prove” that it is so, is ridiculous. You can’t convince me that Fuller was the best qualified for that job. She wouldn’t be kicking for Vandy if she were a guy with her skills.

Re: To you Sarah supporters, what point is she making???


Dec 13, 2020, 9:57 AM

The point she is making is that girls are not allowed to be tackled. Which is why she sprinted to the sideline after her kickoff when the rest of the team sprinted down field to make the tackle on the return man.

2024 purple level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Er, the Extra one?


Dec 13, 2020, 11:39 AM

Maybe it is a trick question?

Do you really blame Vandy for doing something, ANYTHING, to generate a little passing interest in their pathetical footsball program?

They probably woulda done dancing midgets at halftime, but that would be deemed politically incorrect in these snowflake times.

Vandy did actually have 2 kickers before all of this happened


Dec 14, 2020, 8:30 AM

One for XPs and short FGs, and one for long FGs. The long-FG kicker apparently has trouble with the short ones.
