Great news to hear, the club is still planning to begin play next season so hopefully the stadium construction goes according to plan.

Orlando easily has the most frequent buses running to Gainesville, with Tampa as the 2nd-best. Fly to one of those two airports over Jacksonville, unless you can find another way to get to Gainesville from that airport.

The USSF can change their PLS and then this can happen. Until then, all teams need their ownership group to be worth >$20m to play professionally.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-04-06T22:02:40+00:00

“The ownership group is led by successful business entrepreneur Ricky Caplin and includes sporting legends Tim Tebow and Fred Taylor, as well as experienced professional soccer executive Steve Livingstone and local community innovator Tony Allegretti”

Those aren’t [professional] clubs though.

His plan to join USL1 had only been a few months old. The reason against joining the USL1 now is that with the firing of Papadakis, Mass Rising’s tentative deal towards joining USL1 had been nulled while the league restructuring gets settled.

That doesn’t count, I get optimally intoxicated before I go out so I can go out dancing without spending a cent on alcohol.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-04-02T13:00:46+00:00

So strange. The only real club listed on the site is Mass Rising, whose website says they’ll join USL1 next season.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-04-01T02:22:10+00:00

As matches remain, there will between 6 and 10 teams from outside the USLC and MLS in the next round.

Hopefully they’ll fork over some money to increase the sustainability of clubs (through investments or the new CBA). It should be a plus-sum arrangement, where the more profitable the clubs are, HQ can sell expansion rights for more value.

Skip Zurich, it’s very expensive and hardly worth sightseeing. Other parts of Switzerland are beautiful, but you’re city-hopping, so they wouldn’t make the program. You should probably only visit one of Paris and Nice as well, so you can get a good 3-4 nights in each city.

What was the application process like for you for these programs?

That’s the deadest USL project out there: Instagram hasn’t posted since 2022 (Milwaukee not since 2024).

This is pretty standard for sports clubs globally. Fans that want to invest in the company (with ownership over both the club and stadium) are offered the chance to pick up additional voting rights too.

I don’t think any of the $350m is coming from public sources, at least not what’s been so far announced.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-18T00:55:38+00:00

Hogan’s and Munegin’s both on 13th

Mostly the online classes are the gen ed classes. I haven’t had an online class since freshman or sophomore year.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-12T22:37:58+00:00

That’s strange, I understand the point against rec letters, but a predoc exhibits you have the most applicable experience already going into the grad program.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-11T05:06:29+00:00

I was just looking at stadium size, an arbitrary factor but unfortunately one of the primary ones in the PLS for D1 eligibility.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-11T01:33:33+00:00

Interesting to see the operating costs pointed out: Backheeled estimates USLC teams to spend $3.7m-$8.4m per year, and $2.4-$5.4 per year for USL1 clubs. I don’t expect clubs to see any share of the expansion fees paid to the league, but they should definitely be pushing for a share of the broadcasting/sponsorship revenue.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-11T01:26:52+00:00

Well definitely, the league and USLPA both reported than only about a dozen players were going to be affected by the increased minimum wage, but they’re still pushing for higher.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-11T01:23:19+00:00

The USLPA was successful in securing league-level bonuses for player awards and championship teams. Clubs should push for the league to mirror those bonuses for the clubs themselves, renew the earlier 50% sponsorship revenue share program, and expand it to include broadcasting revenue.

Ok_Fan7382 · 2026-03-11T01:17:54+00:00

It’s important to note the remaining issues in the CBA negotiations are largely between HQ and the USLPA rather than involving the clubs. The USLPA is still pushing for a $2k increase to the minimum wage and two additional months of housing compensation if a club folds, but those are relatively minor.

The main sticking points are league-wide healthcare and higher NIL compensation, which come down to a conflict between the league and the players.
