What's to say that players from other parts of the country won't come South? They do it for other sports. And given the South's relative growth, if SEC soccer were to happen, I think there would be an eager pool of players.




You need the culture of fans embracing it. Soccer in the SEC country is still largely made fun of and called a girly sport. Players will want to play in a pro soccer area. Its why places like UVA, UMD, UNC and Midwest schools are always so successful.

Is this an attempt to act like DC United is a big deal or an admittance that people from this area are "girly"?

Sure, but Clemson — which is as SEC as it gets for a non-SEC school — was the national runner-up a few years back. They got the talent somehow.
