ESPN middle finger incident

After defeating South Florida in penalty kicks to win the 2014 American Athletic conference championship, freshman Noriana Radwan gave the middle finger to an ESPN camera. Despite an apology from Radwan her scholarship was revoked by the school, she then launched a federal lawsuit argued she was punished more harshly than male athletes who violate school and athletic department rules of conduct in 2016. In June 2020 Judge Victor A. Bolden ruled against her. [3]
