Kentucky has men's soccer and is also a member of C-USA. Tennessee and Vanderbilt used to field men's squads, but the Title IX restrictions caused them to do away with the programs.

Both Tennessee and Vanderbilt have the resources to field a men's soccer team (as do the other SEC schools). Both schools eliminated soccer because it wasn't a priority for either of them.

given the proximity to all the great weather year around clubs of florida/sc/nc/ga/bama/tenn etc etc, that is a real shame that the sec bailed on mens soccer.
