SJSU volleyball team turn on own coach as they sue college over trans teammate amid forfeit controversy
Daily Mail ^ | Nov 16, 2024 | Isabel Baldwin

The college volleyball controversy over a transgender player took a new twist this week when San Jose State University's women's team sued their own coach.

SJSU women's volleyball team has had multiple games in the Division-1 Mountain West Conference forfeited by other schools due to safety concerns over playing against Blaire Fleming, who is biologically male.

Amid the controversy, which has sparked national debate, some of SJSU's own players have turned on the school, filing a lawsuit against their head coach, the college and the Mountain West Conference.

The lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday, asks for Fleming to be declared ineligible for the Mountain West Conference tournament, SJSU's wins to be vacated and the team to be deemed ineligible for the conference tournament.

According to the filing, captain Brooke Slusser, who previously backed Nevada women's volleyball team for fighting against playing SJSU, has demanded that officials remove Fleming from the roster ahead of the Spartans' conference championship game in Las Vegas later this month. ......

SJSU's administrators told the volleyball team to remain silent about the issue once it became public knowledge, and said that speaking about it would be considered 'transphobic,' the suit alleges.

Some of the team's players were reportedly upset that they had not been informed of Fleming's biological gender, only discovering when rumors began to circulate on campus......

According to her teammates, Fleming spikes the ball 80 miles per hour, faster than anyone else in the conference during practice.

Slusser claims that the powerful hit puts other players at high risk of injuries, including concussions, and hands the Spartans an unfair advantage......

Another plaintiff, Alyssa Sugai, said she left the team after the player received a scholarship and took her starting spot in the lineup.

Another case when the tranny is forced on the team without their input. And then pressured to remain silent or be viewed as homophobic.

They aren’t saying its 80 mph faster than all the other girls...they are saying she hits it 80 mph....which is faster than any other girl in the conference. Other girls are probably around 60’s to low 70’s in velocity.

what is so sad about the whole transgender guys in girls sports, it how little the real men of the NCAA have actually protected the women. That is unforgiveable. Then they threaten them (as I heard Riley Gaines talk about this) with pulling their scholarship money if they talk publicly about their feelings.

When Wilt Chamberlain retired from the NBA, he became the world's best volleyball player. Chamberlain's spikes were known to exceed 100 mph.

Amazing that what is delusional has been falsely turned into a civil rights issue.

During college at Kansas, Wilt was a very promising decathlete in his spare time, just fooling around. There was no money in it, and Wilt needed to get PAID.

“Kamala Harris is for they/them; President Trump is for you.”

That is the best advertising line of the whole campaign.
