Do any decent players play college men’s soccer? Don’t most decent players go pro in one of the thousands of leagues around the world

Soccer is a woman's sport in this country because of title IX.

Soccer's for liberals. Maybe UGA would be interested in bringing it to the conference, but other than them NO THANKS

If I wanted to watch 11 guys struggle to score for 3 hours, I'd just go to the club.

Soccer is popular enough at larger high schools in the South, but it still hasn’t filtered down to the others to become the de facto fourth most popular sport in the general population.

The South just doesn’t produce enough talent to make it worthwhile.

Because their football fields aren't big enough.

Two principle reasons:
1. TITLE IX equity
2. There are already an abundance of non-profit sports draining AD funds

Football takes up 80 scholarships. There is no women's sport that comes anywhere close to that number. This is why there are so many women's sports. That's also why most college baseball players don't have scholarships or only have partial scholarships. Title 9 eliminated most men's sports at colleges and universities.

Soccer is that thing I had fun playing as a kid, but only enjoy watching the women's version for college.
