The Trump administration has opened a federal civil rights investigation into Florida State University (FSU) over 32 scholarships accused of discriminating against students based on race or sex, according to a Department of Education (DOE). The investigation stems from a July 2025 complaint filed by the Equal Protection Project (EPP) that targeted 32 FSU scholarships. The DOE's lists all 32 programs and confirms FSU is a recipient of federal financial assistance and therefore must comply with Title VI and Title IX. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Professor William Jacobson, founder and president of the Equal Protection Project (EPP) and Cornell Law professor, who says that FSU stood out even among the hundreds of colleges and universities his organization has challenged.

In this episode of the Athlete Brand Advisor Podcast, host Greg Glynn, founder & CEO of Pliable Marketing talks with Teddi-Jann Covell about her lifelong connection to women's sports, art, leadership and advocacy. Before Title IX was fully implemented, Teddi-Jann knew that playing college sports was her dream. Raised in a sports-minded family, she was inspired by her father, a two-sport varsity athlete at the University of Maine during the 1950s. He declined an opportunity to play minor-league baseball to become a coach and teacher, and his contributions to the game later earned him induction into the Maine Baseball Hall of Fame. Teddi-Jann carried that athletic tradition to Cornell University's College of Architecture, Art and Planning, where she pursued her passion for art while playing both field hockey and ice hockey. During the episode, Teddi-Jann shares stories from the early years of women's college hockey and discusses how Cornell invested in its women's ice hockey program. She and Greg explore how opportunities for female athletes have evolved, the continued growth of women's hockey and what may be ahead for women's sports. Teddi-Jann also discusses her 30-year career as an air traffic controller with the Federal Aviation Administration. Her leadership roles included serving as vice president of Professional Women Controllers and as the local BGR ATCT president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association. Now 70, Teddi-Jann continues to play ice hockey at Alfond Arena in Orono, Maine. She also paints plein air and advocates for women's health through Nueva, a startup global wellness company. In the episode, Greg and Teddi-Jann also highlight University of Maine women's ice hockey player and Pliable athlete Lulu Rucinski. Lulu has used her platform to promote and raise support for Ronald McDonald House Charities of Maine through her “I Love Orono” campaign. Greg and Teddi-Jann discuss plans for a future collaboration with Lulu that combines their shared passion for hockey, creativity and community impact. Episode Highlights Teddi-Jann's experience pursuing college athletics before Title IX was fully implemented Growing up in a family shaped by baseball, coaching and the University of Maine Playing women's ice hockey at Cornell University Cornell's early investment in its women's ice hockey program The history and continued growth of women's college hockey and the PWHL Teddi-Jann's career as an artist and her passion for plein-air painting NIL for women's ice hockey players Lulu Rucinski's work supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities of Maine Plans for a future collaboration involving Teddi-Jann, Lulu and Pliable What the future may hold for women's hockey and women's sports About the Athlete Brand Advisor Podcast Hosted by Greg Glynn, founder and CEO of Pliable Marketing, the Athlete Brand Advisor Podcast features conversations with athletes, sports leaders and industry professionals who are building meaningful brands and creating an impact through sports. The podcast explores athlete branding, name, image and likeness opportunities, community involvement, career development and the changing sports landscape.
More than 50 years ago, Title IX was passed to address the gap in college degrees earned by women. Today, the script has flipped—and attention is turning to why boys are falling behind in school, as well as in the workforce and later in life. Recently on The FOX News Rundown, guest host Lucas Tomlinson spoke with Richard Reeves, President of the American Institute for Boys and Men, to examine what he calls a "boys crisis"—explaining why girls are outperforming boys in school and how those classroom struggles have a long-term impact on men's careers, earning potential, and marriage rates. The conversation was too long for our regular midweek podcast, so on today's FOX News Rundown Extra, we are releasing the full interview, diving even deeper into the root causes behind lower GPAs and higher dropout rates for boys, and what can be done to reverse the trend.

On episode 243, I sit down with legendary soccer coach Ange Kelly to explore the philosophy that has shaped one of the most respected coaching careers in football.

We're back — maybe getting a little too scheduled — with one opinion on the docket: West Virginia v. B.P.J. and Little v. Hecox, where the Court held that states may limit girls' and women's sports teams to biological sex without violation Equal Protection or Title IX. First, though, Will collects on a two-year-old prediction when the Court grants Jouppi v. Alaska, an Institute for Justice case about a five-figure airplane forfeited over a six-pack of beer. On the main event, we work through how the opinions are written (no pronouns, no "Lindsay"), what the litigants' Title IX concession did to the case, and whether there is any such thing as an as-applied equal protection challenge. Will makes a big-swing prediction about transgender status and heightened scrutiny, and we ask whether the Court's reasoning can be squared with VMI and the anti-stereotyping cases.

Breaking The Silence with Dr Gregory Williams Unconquerable: One Trusted Adult Can Change Everything Dr. Gregory Williams welcomes Chief Matt Antkowiak for a powerful conversation about child-abuse prevention, grooming awareness, survivor shame, institutional accountability, school safety, and the urgent need for trusted adults who are willing to listen, believe, and act. This week's guest is Chief Matt Antkowiak. Chief Matt is the Co-Founder of Team Unconquerable and the Invictus Foundation. U.S. Army veteran, firefighter, career law enforcement leader. He is the author of, "Unconquerable." Guest Spotlight: Chief Matt Antkowiak Chief Matt Antkowiak is the guest on this episode of Breaking the Silence and is introduced as the author of Unconquerable, as well as a police chief, investigator, U.S. Army veteran, firefighter, and child-protection advocate. Drawing from both professional experience and his own survivor story, Matt speaks with unusual directness about childhood sexual abuse, grooming, law enforcement, school accountability, faith, therapy, and the mission of helping other survivors — especially men — understand that the shame belongs to the abuser, not the abused. Dr. Gregory Williams Opens With Urgency and Purpose Dr. Gregory Williams opens the episode from Houston, explaining that he has just returned from church and vacation Bible school but is setting aside his planned notes to give Chief Matt Antkowiak the full hour. He frames the conversation as immediate and practical, stressing that the issues being discussed are not distant or outdated but could be happening in communities right now. Gregory urges listeners not to “hit the snooze button” emotionally or intellectually, warning that ignoring abuse, grooming, and trafficking can allow harm to continue. He also gives listeners ways to participate live through Facebook, phone, and text. Introducing Unconquerable and Matt's Mission The conversation turns to Matt's forthcoming book, Unconquerable, which Gregory shows on screen and describes as a book expected to make a lasting impact. Matt discusses the legal-review process, planned author copies, a hoped-for launch around September 1st, and a future companion workbook titled around “12 conversations” parents need to have with their children. Gregory reads from the book's back-cover description, identifying Matt as a co-founder of Team Unconquerable and the Invictus Foundation, and as someone dedicated to protecting the vulnerable, exposing darkness, and building protectors. Matt also describes his daily educational posts about grooming, education spaces, trafficking, and child-protection awareness. Survivor Shame, Silence, and the Call to Be Heard Matt explains that Unconquerable is rooted not only in his career but also in his own childhood sexual and physical abuse. He speaks directly to survivors, especially men, saying there is no shame or guilt in having been sexually abused and that the abuser owns that burden. Matt says he carried shame in silence for 40 years, and only later began connecting how much of his life, behavior, law-enforcement mission, and trauma response were tied to what happened to him. He describes moments by a pool that became turning points, including a childhood promise to protect another boy and a later realization after a tornado in Oklahoma City that led him toward law enforcement. Faith, Therapy, Writing, and Healing Through the Story Matt describes how therapy, journaling, and writing helped him begin to understand the connections between abuse, first-responder trauma, sex-crimes investigations, and his faith. He says the title Unconquerable ultimately points to Jesus, not to himself, because he sees Christ as the unconquerable one who helped him survive and heal. He explains that sharing his story has no personal upside in terms of comfort or ease, but that he wrote the book so other men would not feel alone or ashamed. The discussion also touches on emotional vulnerability, crying, therapy, spiritual groaning, and the hope that the book will help readers face trauma with honesty instead of silence. Grooming, Trusted Adults, and Predator Propaganda A central theme of the episode is Matt's explanation of grooming and the importance of “one trusted adult.” He says a trusted adult is not a superhero but someone willing to listen, see, and act. Matt emphasizes that if a child discloses abuse, adults should believe the child because there is no advantage for a child in making that kind of disclosure. He distinguishes surprises from secrets, saying surprises have expiration dates but secrets do not, and warns that predators often build trust first by becoming beloved, dependable, and valued in the community. He calls this “predator propaganda,” explaining that respected roles such as teacher, coach, pastor, police officer, or firefighter can be used to shield abusers from suspicion. Institutional Accountability and School Safety Matt and Gregory then focus heavily on schools, child protection, and institutional responsibility. Matt argues that abuse can happen in districts of every size and says parents must learn what questions to ask, what policies to demand, and what red flags to watch. He recommends asking whether educators are allowed to be one-on-one with students behind closed doors and strongly opposes private one-on-one electronic communication between staff and students through social media, gaming platforms, messaging apps, or even unexpected channels such as Spotify. He also discusses allegations and investigations involving school districts, Title IX, Texas education oversight, the Texas educator inspector general, and his belief that institutions must place children above reputation, convenience, and self-protection. Acting on Intuition and Refusing to Hit Snooze In the closing portion, Gregory and Matt urge parents, educators, churches, and communities to act when something feels wrong. Matt explains that adults should ask children better questions, create safety through belief and nonjudgment, and never dismiss intuition when behavior feels off. He says he would rather investigate gray-area concerns early than wait until abuse occurs, and Gregory closes by reinforcing that hope remains possible no matter how long someone has carried trauma. The episode ends with information about Matt's website and resources, an invitation to continue the interview series in two weeks, and Gregory's reminder that a troubling feeling may be a “divine alarm” calling someone to protect a child.

Send us Fan MailResh and Stef are riding high off WNBA All-Star weekend, Napa wine, and 2,500 downloads — then the WTA had to go and ruin everyone's summer.While the world was watching Wimbledon, the WTA quietly posted a brand-new genetic testing policy to their website on July 19th — no press release, no announcement, first reported by Ben Rothenberg at *Bounces*. It took effect July 1st, enforcement started July 21st. Blink and you missed the rollout; players may have found out the same time we did.Out with the old 2024 testosterone-monitoring system (which only applied if you self-declared or were "under investigation" — always a red flag phrase). In with a one-time, mandatory SRY gene test for *every* WTA player, full stop.The guy who *discovered* the SRY gene in 1990, Andrew Sinclair, is on record saying this test is basically useless for what they're using it for — presence of the gene tells you nothing about function. Resh walks through why this test has already failed spectacularly before (IOC dropped it in 1999 after eight Atlanta athletes tested "positive" with zero competitive advantage).This isn't happening in a vacuum — it lines up with the Supreme Court's West Virginia v. B.P.J. ruling, a Heritage Foundation report gunning for Title IX, and the IOC's own policy reversal ahead of LA 2028. Stef traces the receipts back to a 2021 "Women's Sports Policy Working Group" that included Martina Navratilova — who is, notably, denying any influence on this policy. Sure, Martina.The hosts go deep on the historical pattern — gender testing disproportionately targeting women of color and DSD athletes, with Caster Semenya's decade-long fight getting a shoutout. Also: Linda Nosková's Wimbledon championship photo got used in an Out Sports piece about this policy, and she was (rightly) not here for it.Billie Jean King and Semenya call it discrimination. Navratilova calls it progress. Chris Evert is, predictably, one step behind Martina. And Resh has some thoughts about John Isner's serve and Michael Phelps's wingspan never having to pass a permission slip.WNBA All-Star chaos, Pride Nights, the ongoing *Love Island*-style saga of who's dating whom in the league (someone please make the relationship chart official), and a Carla Leite sighting.See you out there, OWLs (Out Wide Listeners)Support the showInstagram : Out_Wide_PodcastJingle : https://www.nelaruizcomposer.com/Logo: https://www.instagram.com/crayonspaghetti/

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Buy Sophie Cunningham's Jersey! (HR 1, Seg 1) Bland white guy predictions (HR 1, Seg 2) Rut on the Truth about T and the military (HR 2, Seg 3) Steve Deace with Big Odyssey Thoughts (HR 3, Seg 3) Clay and Buck focused heavily on the growing cultural and political battle surrounding women's sports, transgender athlete participation, WNBA star Sophie Cunningham, and the future direction of the Democrat Party heading into the 2028 presidential election cycle. The hour opened with extensive discussion of Cunningham's comments defending the idea that biological males should not compete in women's sports. The hosts praised the WNBA player for refusing to backtrack under media pressure and highlighted her statements that women's athletic opportunities and protections under Title IX should be preserved. They contrasted Cunningham's position with arguments from progressive activists and former soccer star Megan Rapinoe, framing the debate as one of fairness, biological differences, women's rights, and the future of female athletics. The conversation also explored public reaction to Cunningham's comments, growing support from athletes and fans, and the broader cultural implications of high-profile female athletes speaking out on controversial issues. The hosts then turned to what they described as increasing political activism and ideological bias within the sports media. They criticized coverage surrounding Caitlin Clark, the WNBA, race, and identity politics, including commentary that linked Clark's popularity to broader social and racial debates. Clay and Buck argued that sports journalism has become increasingly politicized and used the discussion to examine how cultural issues influence public opinion and electoral politics. Throughout the segment, they emphasized the connection they see between winning cultural debates and winning elections, arguing that public support for figures like Sophie Cunningham reflects larger shifts in American opinion on gender, sports, and free expression. A major political segment focused on the Democratic Party's developing 2028 presidential primary landscape. Clay and Buck analyzed reports that Democratic leaders are debating whether South Carolina or Nevada should hold the first presidential contest, framing the dispute as a contest between key Democratic voting blocs, particularly Black and Hispanic voters. The hosts discussed how the primary calendar could shape potential candidacies from figures including Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Gavin Newsom, Mark Kelly, Andy Beshear, Pete Buttigieg, Wes Moore, Josh Shapiro, and others. They examined the strategic advantages different states could provide various candidates and debated whether Democratic leaders are trying to influence the nomination process through primary scheduling decisions. The guys speak with former Navy SEAL David Rutherford, host of The David Rutherford Show and a member of the Clay & Buck Podcast Network. Rutherford first shared stories from a recent African safari in South Africa, including close encounters with lions, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, and other wildlife. The discussion covered the realities of safari tourism, animal behavior, and the expertise required to safely navigate the African wilderness. The interview then moved into military readiness, veteran health, and national security issues. Rutherford praised new Pentagon attention to what he described as "operator syndrome," a collection of physical and psychological health challenges experienced by military personnel exposed to years of combat deployments and high-intensity operations. He specifically discussed the Department of Defense’s growing focus on testosterone levels, endocrine health, hormone replacement therapy (TRT), mental health, sleep performance, and long-term care for active-duty service members and veterans. Rutherford argued that recognizing these issues could significantly improve military preparedness, recovery, and overall quality of life for warfighters. The hosts also examined escalating U.S.-Iran tensions, Middle East security concerns, military deployments, oil shipping routes, and potential military strategy. Rutherford discussed threats to American interests in the region, attacks on U.S. installations, instability surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, and the possibility of future ground operations in Iran. The conversation explored strategic military options, force deployment considerations, and the political implications of an expanded conflict as the country approaches the midterm election cycle. Clay and Buck also discussed how ongoing wars and overseas military engagements could influence voter attitudes and congressional races. Steve Deace joined the show to discuss Iowa politics, the state’s upcoming statewide elections, and the political environment heading into future campaign cycles. Deace analyzed the strength of Democratic candidates in Iowa, Republican prospects, voter registration trends, and the changing electoral landscape. The conversation then turned to entertainment and culture, focusing heavily on Christopher Nolan’s film adaptation of The Odyssey. Deace offered a sharply critical review of the movie, arguing that it deviates significantly from the original source material and reflects broader trends in Hollywood storytelling. The hosts discussed movie production, cultural messaging in entertainment, sound design issues in modern filmmaking, and the opportunity they believe exists for filmmakers to create stories aimed at mass audiences without overt political messaging. The discussion expanded into Hollywood, conservative media, independent filmmaking, storytelling, faith-based entertainment, cultural influence, and audience demand for non-political content. Deace argued that many successful modern films focus too heavily on ideological objectives rather than compelling storytelling. Clay and Buck agreed, suggesting that there is significant market demand for films that prioritize strong narratives over political agendas. They explored how storytelling shapes culture and the role entertainment can play in influencing public opinion. The hosts returned to the subject of Sophie Cunningham, Caitlin Clark, women’s sports, and transgender athlete policies, with Deace praising Cunningham’s refusal to retreat from her position. He argued that standing by one’s beliefs in the face of organized criticism is just as significant as the position itself. The group also analyzed Caitlin Clark’s unique impact on professional basketball, her historic popularity, and the complicated relationship between her fan base and portions of the sports media establishment.

On June 30th, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled that states can bar transgender girls and women from competing on girls' and women's teams. Six to three. It's now the law in over half the country. And however you feel about that ruling, here's what we noticed in the days after it came down: almost none of the coverage actually talked to a transgender kid, or the parent raising one. It was all policy. All abstraction. It is a decision that, on paper, is about Title IX and biological sex and constitutional interpretation. But underneath all that legal language is something much more personal: real kids, real families, real teams, and real decisions about who gets to belong. And let's not forget: argued by people who've never sat across from an eight-year-old who already knows she's going to be treated differently. So we went back into our archive. A while back, we sat down with a remarkable mom, Jaime, raising a transgender daughter in Florida. And more recently, we talked with Schuyler - you might know him as Pink Manta Ray - a multiethnic Korean American trans educator, the first transgender Division 1 athlete on a men's team while at Harvard, and author of He, She, They: How We Talk About Gender and Why It Matters. We're combining pieces of both conversations into one episode, because we think you need both things right now: Jaime's story, to feel it - and Schuyler's clarity, to know what to actually say and not say when it comes up in your own life. These aren't talking points. These are ways to simply see the humanity in each other. Please listen, and share widely. What to listen for: Intersectionality, and Schuyler's own experience growing up biracial The importance of exploring why you are who you are – for ALL of us – when it comes to gender The quick takedown of the arguments from people working to push trans women out of women's sports A bullet-pointed list of what NOT to say to transgender folks How to remind yourself of joy and a sense of thriving in the world, when it gets rough What Schuyler wants cisgender, heterosexual women to do differently, once you listen to the episode About Schuyler: Schuyler Bailar (he/him) is an educator, advocate, and bestselling author who made history as the first transgender athlete to compete in any sport on an NCAA Division 1 men's team. Originally recruited to swim for the Harvard women's team, Schuyler made the difficult choice to transition while potentially giving up the prospect of being a women's NCAA Champion. His story has appeared everywhere from 60 Minutes to The Washington Post and The Ellen Show. Schuyler's tireless advocacy has earned him numerous honors, including Forbes 30 Under 30 and the Out 100. In 2023, Schuyler's critically acclaimed nonfiction bestseller became the preeminent resource on trans inclusion: He/She/They: How We Talk About Gender and Why It Matters. Schuyler's works include his middle-grade novel Obie Is Man Enough, his online gender literacy training LaneChanger.com, and his hit podcast Dear Schuyler, including exclusive interviews with trans icons and allies like Lia Thomos, Dylan Mulvaney, Rafael de la Fuente, and many more. Follow Schuyler on Instagram @pinkmantaray About Jaime: Jaime Jara is a woman who wears many hats. A native New Yorker, she navigates daily life in Florida with her husband, 3 kids, and a plethora of furbabies. She lends her voice and perspective as a parent of a transgender child to shed light on the challenges faced by the trans community. Jaime is an active member of the national LGBTQ organizations that aim to empower and support parents of LGBTQ children. After a long stint in corporate America, Jaime is putting her graduate degree to good use by starting her second career as an educator.

The Supreme Court just ruled on Title IX and transgender athletes in women's sports — and Chicks on the Right is breaking it down live, just an hour after the decision dropped. Joined by Jennifer Sey, CEO and founder of XX-XY Athletics, we unpack the bundled Idaho and West Virginia cases, what the 9-0 Title IX ruling and 6-3 Equal Protection split actually mean, and why this is being called a win — but not the final word.Jen explains why the ruling only protects the 27 states that already have laws on the books, while the remaining 23 states (including Colorado, California, and New York) can keep allowing biological males to compete in girls' sports. We dig into her work leading a successful Colorado ballot initiative, why this issue can't be solved state-by-state for elite athletes competing across state lines, and why she believes the country needs national legislation.The conversation also covers the feminist divide on trans inclusion in sports, reactions to Justice Clarence Thomas and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's opinions, mainstream media coverage of the ruling, and two AI-generated videos imagining how blue-state governors and Title IX itself might respond.Jen's mission at XX-XY Athletics: putting the focus back on girls!Follow XX-XY Athletics: xxxyathletics.comFollow Jennifer Sey on Twitter/X: @JenniferSeySubscribe and stay tuned for new episodes every weekday!Follow us here for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:YoutubeFacebookInstagramTikTokXLocalsMore InfoWebsite
