Men's NCAA Soccer Championship

Marshall, out of the SBC, is playing for the National championship right now on ESPN+
We have a great opportunity to start a men's program and be in the best conference in men's college soccer.
Why would you not?

I imagine money to start a men's soccer program and money to start another women's sports program.

They have a whale of a men’s soccer sugar daddy. He also funded their soccer complex. Can’t recall the name. Find someone involved with the program long term and talk to them. Think UL softball on steroids.

For real?

Still level at 0, under 27 minutes left.

Marshall up 1-0 under 24 left. Clean up goal after keeper blocked a shot.

Under 10, Vermont levels game at 1. One touch right of goal ~ 10yards out to left bottom corner.

Marshall, better touches. Vermont stamina and speed. To overtime.


Unranked Vermont wins 2-1. Marshall’s last defender on a breakaway gets beat, ends up 1v1 with keeper. First NC of any type for the state of Vermont per ESPN crew.

Jeff Hoops. Coal and real estate.

And it helps if this dude is your university president. Money follows money.

Jeff Hoops.

I apologize, Mr. ZZ, I was commenting on Soccer, "For Real" in general. NIL is going to kill college sports and Louisiana does not need to start up anything and throw money at it.

No problem sir. MSOC will never be a big deal in the south. The season starts in August and can be in direct competition at times with football. Looking at the bracket, not too many big boys play soccer. Even if UL had a Hoops Family donor, it wouldn’t be for soccer.

Watched the last third of the game. Several international players, which probably doesn’t come cheap at that level.

Even though it’s a sport I occasionally watch, I’m not naive to the fact it never will happen at UL. It would require a Title IX addition of some type.


Congratulations to Marshall on a good run. Vermont just had more in the tank when it mattered.

Honest question. Does the Sunbelt require that schools carry certain sports? Could a school not have a MBB team?

When I worked there, certain sports were required (MBB and WBB for sure). Not sure if that’s still the case, but it would be virtually impossible to be a D1 school and not have it.

Men’s basketball NCAA tournament $$ from the CBS contract continues to be a huge component of conf revenue sharing, and to miss out on that would be disastrous.

Could make argument that having a successful MBB program is more important than FB honestly, especially in certain parts of the country.

That will never happen.
