With rumors of a publicity stunt by Vanderbilt University starring soccer player-turned-football kicker Sarah Fuller still swirling, the SEC named Fuller Special Teams Player of the Week along with Florida’s Kadarius Toney on Monday. This, after Fuller, had made one second-quarter kickoff during her first-ever college football game.
Fuller, who joined the Vanderbilt football team only three days before her Saturday debut against Missouri, “Took the opening kickoff of the second half against the Tigers, as her perfectly-executed kick sailed 30 yards and was downed at the Missouri 35-yard line,” according to the SEC. The Tigers went on to beat Vanderbilt 41-0. ...
Nope ... her kick was not "perfectly-executed" ... the obvious off-sides penalty was not called, it only "sailed" 20 yards and bounced another 10 yards, and it was headed out-of-bounds, which would have been a penalty, before a Missouri player graciously pounced on it to keep it in the playing field. THIS is what the SEC considers good enough to be declared a "Player of the Week"??? Although, I will say that I do not believe any of the other NCAA conferences would have been any less gutless, either, for that matter.
