San Jose State issued a statement to OutKick, expressing disappointment over the situation. “It is disappointing that our SJSU student-athletes, who are in full compliance with NCAA and Mountain West rules and regulations, are being denied opportunities to compete,” the statement read.

Legal actions and safety concerns

Brooke Slusser, a San Jose State team member, has joined 18 other athletes in a lawsuit against the NCAA, citing concerns over current gender identity policies. The lawsuit highlights safety concerns, with Slusser claiming that Fleming’s spikes reached speeds previously unseen in women’s volleyball.

Support and opposition

Former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines commended Boise State for prioritizing athlete safety. “Some principles transcend winning on the court, and the safety and well-being of female athletes is one of them,” Gaines told Fox News Digital.

Idaho Governor Brad Little praised Boise State’s decision, aligning it with his state’s proactive stance against transgender inclusion in women’s sports. Little’s executive order enforces the “Defending Women’s Sports Act,” emphasizing exclusion protocols.

Federal and legal context

The Biden administration’s rule, effective August 1, includes gender identity in Title IX’s discrimination protections. However, GOP lawmakers and schools like Wyoming, Southern Utah, and Boise State have shown resistance.

In a significant legal moment, the Supreme Court recently rejected an emergency request to enforce parts of this rule, reflecting ongoing national division over the issue.

As this controversy unfolds, colleges across the country face increasing pressure to navigate the complex intersection of inclusivity and athletic integrity.
