Austin is still hoping to get its own Major League Soccer ( MLS ) team in the near future despite the recent collapse of a proposal that would have seen Columbus Crew SC relocate to the city . Precourt Sports Ventures , which had sought to move the team to Texas , would be able to bypass the $ 150 m ##ln bidding process normally required to establish a new team , reports said . A stadium that looks like this will most likely still be built at McKalla Place, we just don't yet know who will play in it. The Crew bid failed after a new ownership group came in and made a commitment to keeping the team in Ohio .
