Welcome to Episode 166 of Inside the Game!

This week, we dive into three major storylines shaping the soccer landscape:

Ball State’s New Era – We sit down with newly hired head coach Andy Stoots, who brings a decade of NCAA Tournament experience from Missouri, Louisville, and Minnesota as he takes the helm in Muncie. Coach Stoots shares his vision, philosophy, and what’s next for the Cardinals’ women’s soccer program.

Gio Reyna Joins Ownership – U.S. Men’s National Team star Gio Reyna takes his career off the pitch, joining the ownership group at Fort Lauderdale United FC. We break down what this means for USL and the growing trend of players investing in American clubs.

Peaking Too Soon? – With Christian Pulisic, Reyna, Adams, Balogun, and others finding top form overseas, should U.S. fans be concerned that the team is hitting its stride too early ahead of Copa América and the 2026 World Cup?
