When the Boise State Broncos played the Notre Dame Fighting Irish last Saturday, the lightest lineman listed on their roster weighed 278 pounds.
In fact, most of the linemen on the Boise State roster weighed 300 pounds or more.
Should these same young men be allowed to play on women's teams at Boise State? A case the Supreme Court should hear this term could answer that question.
On March 20, 2020, Gov. Brad Little, R-Idaho, signed the Fairness in Women's Sports Act.
It included a simple, straightforward rule: "Athletic teams or sports designated for females, women, or girls shall not be open to students of the male sex."
The law made clear that it was referring to "the student's biological sex." Thus, the law would prevent a 6-foot, 7-inch, 310-pound offensive lineman on the Boise State men's football from also playing on the women's soccer team.
