San Jose State University has acknowledged a recent mass exodus of volleyball players who entered the transfer portal after a controversy-riddled season involving a trans athlete on the team.
The university provided a statement to Fox News Digital in which it expressed “respect” for the recent wave of players who have opted to transfer. “Student athletes have the ability to make decisions about their college athletic careers, and we have the utmost respect for that,” the statement read.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported that seven of the team’s players have entered the transfer portal.
The seven players who are transferring will be leaving the team after a season that included eight forfeited matches, regular police protection, national scrutiny and internal turmoil between players and coaches. One player even received threats of physical harm amid the controversy.
Head coach Todd Kress even spoke about how the 2024 season was one of the “most difficult” of his life after the team’s loss in the conference final to Colorado State, in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
“This has been one of the most difficult seasons I’ve ever experienced, and I know this is true as well for many of our players and the staff who have been supporting us all along. Maintaining our focus on the court and ensuring the overall safety and well-being of my players amid the external noise have been my priorities,” Kress said.

Im glad to hear sane women are simply picking up and leaving for greener pastures.
Women spike at 50mph, men at 80mph.
No.

We ALL are.
Both numbers are too low for D1 college players
Just watch Penn State and Louisville tomorrow and get back to me
I wonder if some in the NCAA are working to put up a Berlin Wall in front of the transfer portal. It's a transfer portal not a Trans-fer portal so you are not allowed to flee.
The girls should just have brass knuckles in their pockets and maybe pepper spray.
This is the only way this crap will stop.
My hat is off to the girls doing this. It is no small thing for them.
Pretty sure they’re on the team to play competitive volleyball not win by forfeit. No surprise they’re transferring for the opportunity to play elsewhere.
Thank Anthony Kennedy for the 2015 fag marriage 5-4 Scotus decision that led to porn in school libraries, drag queen story hour and the ascendence of tranny politics.
Off the intended topic, but have to say that “transfer portal” sounds to me like they are getting in some sci fi machine and the student with all their belongings will be teleported to their new school!
To the REAL women on that team, RUN, RUN, RUN away as fast as possible from that school !
