Austin being the size it is without having one of the major 4 sports is crazy



Because Dallas and Houston won't allow that to happen.



San Antonio is 75 miles from Austin and bigger. San Antonio will get an MLB or NFL team before Austin, IMO

San Antonio won’t be larger for much longer. The San Antonio MSA has 2.6 million people and is growing at approximately 1.5%. Austin has 2.35 million people and is growing at a 3% rate. I suspect Austin would be the preferred choice for MLB over San Antonio.

I think more than likely what will happen is a team gets put between the two kind of like how the Rangers and Cowboys are in Arlington.
