Media Renew Sarah Fuller Mania Over Woman Who Kicked For Vandy Football

Sarah Fuller, the former Vanderbilt University soccer player, really wowed the easily impressed left-stream media last year when she kicked for the football team a few times. Fuller mania is flaring up again because she’s now working for a sports agency as an adviser on how others can cash in on their names, images and likenesses.

It’s not just that Fuller was a token barrier breaker. It’s how the media blew what she did so far out of proportion.

Internet is abuzz again with praises for the first ever woman to play in a Power 5 conference soccer game. It would be absurd to claim she played in any game. She merely kicked a kick in the first half of one game. She kicked an additional two points in another game while her opponent refused to hurry her. She did not tackle or block anyone and she never took any major college hits. No grass was left on her uniform.

Fuller (shown above in a 2020 ESPN SportsCenter report) said she gave women the “courage to play football.” At least when none of the men on the field actually hit you.

Fuller, who is currently playing soccer for North Texas University at the University of Texas, works also for Wasserman Sports Agency. The media fondly remember her (in these words by USA Today) “historic run” at Vanderbilt last year. They can never get enough of Fuller, who was featured in a music video, recorded a video featured during President Joe Biden’s inauguration celebration and also introduced Vice-president Kamala Harris. Fuller also made a great choice for the ESPY Awards program on ESPN, which is the world’s leader in left-wing sport reporting. 

Fuller got famous during a “marquee moment,” raved Front Office Sports. CBS estimated her social media value at $160,000. Sports Illustrated jumped on the bandwagon with the headline, “A Year After Making History in College Football, Sarah Fuller Is Back Doing What She Loves Most”. SI’s MacKenzie Meaney wrote about how Fuller became an “icon” in women’s sports by appearing in a man’s sport.:

When Sarah Fuller took the field a year ago for Vanderbilt’s football team, the college senior took the world by storm, empowering women of all ages to do what many thought was impossible—break barriers and make history.

“In other words, You can play as a girl.”

Vandy felt like a young girl when she was rushed by the rival men.

Not surprisingly, Fuller plans to eventually pursue a home in the National Women’s Soccer League, a haven for social justice warriors and liberal lesbians like Megan Rapinoe and others. Fuller’s success there could make her a legend in the left-stream media.
