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

It seems like most of Clemson players are from other countries.

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

I don’t know. Why do Clemson fans not participate in teeth brushing?

that makes no sense given most programs in other conferences have a men's soccer team.
UofSC and Kentucky have men's soccer teams.
Clemson has won 2 national titles in men's soccer and made it to 9 final fours, including this year.

We would have to add a womens sport with equivalent scholarships. Lacrosse or something. Doesn’t make sense for many of our schools.

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.

I don't watch soccer but I don't get why the SEC doesn't compete in the sport.

It makes perfect sense, you just have no understanding of how title ix works

South Carolina and Kentucky compete in CUSA.

Because their football fields aren't big enough.

Clemson has 2 national titles in it and is playing in the final 4 in Raleigh this Friday against ND.
If SEC competed in the sport, perhaps it is a SEC school rather than Clemson.
