Harris is 5-foot-7, 164-pounds. Hopefully she won't get injured playing against the guys.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Irregardless or weight or gender, she is giving up at least 4 inches to the average receiver. Hope she has kangaroo hops and cheetah speed.

"Harris is 5-foot-7, 164-pounds. Hopefully she won't get injured playing against the guys.”

If she gets on the field with the big boys, she should expect to get hit.

This ain't tiddywits, little girl.

[lodi90]

Sounds like a publicity stunt for the school.

[Steely Tom]

How we “make history” now.

[2banana]

Prediction: Her “career” ends in a particularly hard, but legit, hit. She then sues the school and league.

[TalBlack]

The guys playing against her will be flat out told to back off.

[Midwesterner53]

In the interest of gender equality, I hope the guy will not hold back with her in the game.

[Leaning Right]

This thread is worthless without a picture of the female football player. So here she is.

(Just kidding...maybe.)

[PIF]

She’s been watching too much Supergirl ...

Safety may be the safest position on the field for her. Blocks below the waist beyond 5 yards of the line of scrimmage are now illegal in NCAA football and females’ knees are much weaker than males’. She will not be in man coverage a lot and will probably struggle the most trying to tackle bigger running backs or tight ends who caught passes. Teams playing against her will send out 2 tight ends or larger slot receivers. I’m guessing she’s fast, which would be really the only reason to have her out there. She’s a little short and light for any kind of safety. If she can run, I’d make her a corner and take my chances.

[Reily]

She will end up crippled.
All to make some feminist point.

[Autonomous User]

This women is articulate and very well spoken. It was not what I expected. I don’t think she will last 2 years at the JUCO... but I wish her well. She is a winner.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Congratulations young lady!

She earned a scholarship based on merit and I hope she does well.

[LostPassword]

Awesome. Good luck to her. The best players should get to player regardless of their genitals. If she’s the best she should play.

[PGR88]

So precisely one female potentially may play college football, in a national college football universe of 50,000, or more, players.

What does it prove, exactly?

[Kozak]

I remember a story from a couple of years ago.

Parents sue High School so that daughter can play on team.
They win.

Daughter plays and gets a ruptured spleen.

Parents sue High School......

[jmaroneps37]

Football is not my sport but if she was she “had offers from four schools.” This is clearly not a stunt and she obviously has something to offer; so good luck to her.

[boycott]

I think Serena Williams would have made a good linebacker.

[txnativegop]

she will crumple the first time 250lb linebacker or any other decently sized player hits her.

What the heck was she thinking?

Unless, of course this is all a con job to get a free ride to college.

[guyman]

Never heard of this tiny division 3 school. But I assure you that if it is Methodist it is liberal as hell.
