UFL changes 3 cities as new investor shares bullish vision for spring football
Sports entrepreneur Mike Repole isn’t discouraged by the long odds facing pro spring football as a business model. He is bullish on the future of the United Football League as the UFL announces a plan for three replacement cities. Orlando, Florida, is in along with Columbus, Ohio, and Louisville, Kentucky. The cities being replaced are San Antonio, Detroit and Memphis, Tennessee. Those moves are part of a strategy to get into smaller stadiums. The remaining Texas teams in the Dallas area and Houston are going to smaller venues while also changing names.
