re: Will the SEC ever get Men's Soccer?

I think we can all agree that the more stable professional teams and academies established, the better this country will become in this sport. We've made huge strides in youth development in the last 10 years, but there's still lots of untapped potential.

Louisiana, for example, is a huge untapped well of potential soccer talent, with no fully professional team or academy established here yet. Our talented players like Patrick Mullins and Andrew Malinich have to go out-of-state to reach their potential. Hopefully that changes soon. I know if I won the lottery, that would be one of the first projects I spent my money on.
