Scott Calhoun - They are not even going to get an MLS team. The USL already set and ready to start over there, giving MLS time to see how that level fares. Pool has more leverage and firepower to force reconsideration of how to use McKalla. San Antonio and others could and may sue if MLS awards a BS expansion to Austin, after it never even submitted a formal bid. Precourt didn't want to do it from scratch and now he would have to. And it will be very costly for him.
I think the jerks in Austin just got their karma kicked up their arses.
Drew Jones - By the sound of it, Haslem's money will not be going to Precourt, rather to MLS. Precourt would be on the hook for every cost beyond the $150 million expansion fee. Basically Precourt gets to keep his MLS shares which results in the control of a team in Austin and Haslem buys into MLS by paying a $150 million expansion fee to begin control of Columbus.
