When Mason put Sarah Fuller in to make the second-half opening kickoff, Vandy was losing to Mizzou 21-0, on its way to a 41-0 blowout and an 0-8 record.
She had a holder (like for a PAT or field goal, but not for a kickoff), made a 27-yard squib kick, and immediately ran off the field, even though a real kicker has to cover on run-backs. But she wasn’t a real kicker, even though she’s plenty tall (https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4254808/sarah-fuller>officially 6’2”; no weight given). But she’s a girl.
And she was oh-so-proud of herself!
ESPN: “HER-STORY MADE”
Sarah Fuller: “I just want to tell like all the girls out there: You can really do anything you set your mind to. Like, you really can.”
Like. You can’t. So, she’s a liar, too.
There was real news, but the sports “experts” largely ignored it. As numerous Youtube commenters asked, where are the interviews with the guy from Buffalo who scored eight touchdowns and ran for 409 yards?
That would be Jaret Patterson. And he won the game, 70-41, for his team, Buffalo, against Kent State! (Granted, we're not talking about college football powerhouses here.) Unfortunately, the sports business has been taken over by people for whom winning doesn't matter.
Derek Mason was clearly doing this as a publicity stunt, in order to save his job. Maybe he thought the campus feminists would demand that black Vandy Athletic Director Candice Storey Lee save him, after almost seven years (27-50) of failure. But no such luck. Vanderbilt fired Mason yesterday.
Coach Derek Mason is not to be confused with longtime NFL standout wide receiver, Derrick Mason.
@Quex Bull. N.S.: Any player on the football team could have kicked it farther than her. Heck, I could kick it farther than her when I was her age, and she's much taller than me.
Derek Mason’s statement: It has truly been my honor to have been given the opportunity to teach, mentor, champion and coach hundreds of Vanderbilt young men and one courageous female.”

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a female foot squibbing a kickoff forever.

"Sara did well enough to become the only kicker on the team." Me: so literally no one tried out? No quad amputees with a dream? No 85yr old men trying to regain their youth? No 50yr olds with a mid-life crisis?.....just this!?

Rumor has it they wanted to make it a female tandem with a female holder as well but they didn't trust Lucy from The Peanuts Gang.

@Kyle Barney Because 1) she wasn’t qualified to have the opportunity 2) there were at least 500 male students that WERE qualified to sub in, and they discriminated against them to allow her to play dress-up

Booby Prize for Analogies
@sv s “it wasn't a long kick, but still it was historic just as the Wright Brothers first flight wasn't a long one (it covered about 120 feet).”
N.S.: The folks who removed analogies from the SAT did it for the intellectually challenged, like you. There needs to be a booby prize for bad analogies like that.

Announcers sold out their collective manhood for the cause. "We're witnessing history" actually speaks to the level of bulls--t men are willing to say to bow to the PC culture. A real announcer would have called it for what it was -- a walk-on female publicity stunt.

@Justin Dorsch I really think, looking back, that the announcers and the crowd all got amped up and expected her to boom the s--t out of it. The crowd went silent as soon as the kick left her foot. The announcers were left holding the bag. They been got.

An 0-8 record, hasn't won a game all year, in last place, in a 41-0 blowout, she made a kick that would usually get a kicker benched... the ball didn't even travel 30 yards. Check out the VT game about a month back where the kicker did the same thing(ball actually traveled about 3 or 4 more yards), the announcer said and I quote, "That's one he would like to have back, maybe he was just practicing an onside kick since they've have limited practice time", 'Yeah, that was what he was doing" said the other announcer then they both chuckled.

That is because she was a woman playing for a power 5 college. I understand the hate about the kick. But you do realize that she is more accomplished than most of you here. She won a national championship in Womens soccer. So give her resepect

@Rags Riches She did something insufferably stupid. So, no, she gets no respect from me. And no, she is not more accomplished than I am. That's two stupid statements you made.

But notice how the headlines aren't Vandy in last place who has yet to win a game all year is 0-8 and just got blown out 41-0 by a .500 team. No, now the headline is Historic day for Vandy football. Pretty clever actually, that coaching staff just bought themselves at least 1 more year, no way in heII they can fire the coaching staff now after this.
[N.S.: That’s surely what they thought would happen.]

And afterwards,the black players took turns on her.She's isn't a trailblazer--just delusional--and an affirmative action beneficiary in the category of "unqualified woman wasting everyone's time".
