With Dell Loy Hansen selling Real Salt Lake and Utah Royals FC after a myriad of self-induced controversies, the number of people who have come forward expressing interest in joining a new ownership group has exploded.
From the outset, Jozy Altidore and Nick Rimando expressed interest. From there, Ryan Smith, CEO and co-founder of Utah tech Qualtrics (which sold in a massive $8 billion cash deal) made it clear that he could be interested, too.
Now, JJ Watt, who I understand is a fairly prominent NFL player with the Houston Texans, has thrown his name into consideration.
