Precourt Sports Ventures LLC hasn’t loaded the trucks to move their Columbus Crew team to Austin yet. Potential new owners might keep the team in Columbus.
The #SaveTheCrew movement admits only slight rays of hope beam their way. But their beloved MLS team has a chance to stay home. Late last year, principle owner Charles Precourt sounded more determined than over to move the team to Texas.
Precourt targets Austin as the largest metropolitan area without a major sports team. That Texas city’s media anxiously follows media developments in their favor.
Columbus became the home for MLS’ first club and holds onto that honor so far.
