Might as well get out in front of it...for once.
Even if it does, college soccer won’t replace it.
College soccer is mostly an afterthought. Schools don’t invest in it, people don’t attend it, nobody watches it on TV, and the nation’s top soccer athletes don’t play it. They’re already playing professionally.

Now would have been the time to make Cajun Field soccer compliant.
If they didn't move the sidelines back on the home side, it will never happen.
If they did, great. If they didn't, it reminds me of Authement keeping the Olympic pool short on purpose.

The Soccer travel budget would be much, much smaller than the basketball travel budget.

Places like Louisiana would be prime for collegiate soccer. No major professional teams at all.

MBB at least has the potential to pay for itself and, conceivably, even make a few bucks with the right coach/team. Soccer does not. Travel would be more expensive, and if you got 500 spectators for a home game, that would be a lot.

Re: Men's NCAA Soccer Championship
Yes. Acadiana is a youth soccer hot bed now. We need a men's team now and $2 Nattys at the games!
