Oberlin College lacrosse coach Kim Russell says she didn’t break any of the liberal arts college’s rules when speaking out against transgender swimmer Lia Thomas in 2022.
Russell received flack from colleagues and students for voicing criticisms of biological men — like Thomas — competing in women’s sports. It started in 2022 after she shared an Instagram post that congratulated ex-Virginia swimmer Emma Weyant who came in second behind Thomas.
“What do you believe? I can’t be quiet on this…,” Russell wrote.

Ben Shelton hasn’t won anything on the professional level. In fact, the young American has a losing singles record of 20-23 since turning pro in 2022 and is barely a Top 50 player in the world rankings.
Every tennis player who has ever made a name for themselves has had to start from somewhere, however, and Shelton has managed to have his moment of arrival on one of the biggest stages in the sport, in New York City at the U.S. Open.
ESPN signed Mina Kimes to a new contract worth $1.7 million a year. According to the New York Post, the network also allowed her to sign a separate deal with Omaha Productions to push her yearly earnings over $2 million.
Such a salary is usually reserved for a host or in-game broadcaster. But that is not the case for Mina Kimes.
ESPN will, instead, pay her that amount to continue in her role as an NFL “analyst” and film “guru.”
Kimes’ role is particularly interesting when you consider that, well, she never played NFL football. Or any football, for that matter.
