Apparently the old AAS building is a potential site

Maybe a dumb question, but what about DKR for MLS matches; then a smaller, suburban complex for practice and US Cup-sized matches? This is the Sounders here in Seattle, albeit at an NFL stadium.

I'm not sure about any of those. Is Texas field turf?! WTH. Yes - that's a problem. C-Link gets swapped from Sounders on Saturday to Seahawks on Sunday without any issue.moneyag7 said:I'm obviously not informed on all of the decisions but I came up with these real quickCapCityAg89 said:

1. Turf
2. Width of the soccer field may not fit
3. I doubt UT wants to paint soccer stripes on their turf

How about the Longhorns' soccer stadium instead? I think the seating capacity is similar to most soccer-specific MLS stadiums.

According to Grant Wahl and Massive Report, the owner of Columbus Crew is set to move the team to Austin starting in 2019 if the team does not get a new downtown stadium built in Columbus.
When I first moved here I was so confused when I hit my first light on 360. "But it's a highway?!" That would be a really cool location but yeah, nightmare access-wise.AgGrad99 said:
I wish the could locate it somewhere off 360...that would be a destination location. But I realize the $$ and environmentalists would prevent that from happening (not to mention the traffic issue again).
Very interesting. Also interesting, I'd missed this till now:Out in Left Field said:

Houston 1836 is my fantasy football team nameChipFTAC01 said:
I like Austin Athletic.
With all of the euro-style team names I think the ones that work best when they don't feel forced even if it's a blatant ripoff. Real Salt Lake is idiotic. Dynamo works because of the Houston energy connection. Sporting KC just feels clunky.
I'm really surprised that no one has gone and used a year in their name like Houston 1836. I still think that was a missed opportunity.
Yup, lots of FCs and a few SCs now:ChipFTAC01 said:
Orlando is SC aren't they?
