Lol no.

They were extremely supportive of her last week because all of the other kickers had Covid.

Now, their starting kicker is healthy. These guys want to knock off a top team like Georgia and they want a real kicker.

Did this actually happen?

Also, maybe they should listen to her if it did. Vanderbilt's women's soccer team just won the SEC title and beat the #1, #2 and #3 seeds to do it. Sounds like she could teach them how to pick themselves up and move forward.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'd bet money that there are former HS All-State soccer players on their men's club soccer team that kicked on their HS football teams and are far better options than Sarah Fuller.

LNCHBOX, our most beloved contrarian, kicks her arse at kicking

Yes. She said on a podcast she yelled at them because nobody was “cheering when we got a first down”.

You know you can just admit this whole thing is a publicity stunt right?

If I was a kicker on their roster and saw her warming up with kicks from the 2 yard line that barely scrapped over the crossbar, I'd be pretty pissed off about it too. This ain't pee wee football where everyone gets to play. And if I was a non-kicker on a team with a staff that is playing a girl just because she's a girl, saying they don't care about winning, I'd quit too

Apparently the previous kickers at Vandy are healthy but they chose to go with Sarah Fuller again.


If true I really can't say that I blame them. They're being used as props for a PR stunt.

It did, and you can't be serious. These guys have been together for years in some cases, going through seasons, weights in the summer, spring ball, eating together traveling together and enduring this 0-7 season together. Then this entitled bitch shows up on day one and has that audacity to call them out??? You really think they shouldn't be upset by this?

In what universe will a kicker be what puts Vandy over GEORGIA?

Games where their starting kicker potentially cost them the game:
Mississippi Sate (misses a 50 yarder early in the game, meaning that it would have been 24-17 when they marched and instead of settling for a FG could have gone for a TD to force OT)

Texas A&M (misses a 45 yard FG, which would have had Vandy within 2 points when they were pushing down field - could have gotten another FG, and won 18-17)

I see no wins where the kicker was the catalyst, but I see some losses where some misses might have changed the outcome of the game.

Don't worry. If Vandy somehow manages to find the endzone, on the PAT she'll look like one of those sorority chicks they drag out of the stands to do that Dr. Pepper kick between the first and second quarters.

You don't come in your first day playing football and yell at the dudes who've been getting their arse kicked all year for not cheering like your soccer team does.

Especially when you can't even kickoff right.

Just not a good look.

in no universe, but maybe a few of these men still have some pride and want to at least put forward the best team they can instead of walking into Athens with a walking sideshow.

I've already said that in the past. I still believe it is as well.

Doesn't mean I'm going to give a pass to Vandy players wussing out of their final game like it's going to matter one lick who their kicker is.

More and more players quitting because their team isn't winning enough games, like this is a CoD or LoL match and they just drop connection when things are going tough. Just because you're Vandy isn't an excuse, and just because your AD and former coach did a PR stunt isn't an excuse either.

Dude, you are a complete clown.

If they were quitting because of Vandy’s failure/Mason’s firing, they would’ve quit yesterday. They quit today because Sarah Fuller was decided to be the kicker. They want the guy who gives them the best chance to win, which isn’t Sarah Fuller
