One thing though, BE soccer is more of the tough kick in the shins variety and not the graceful style that we play. We'll have to adjust to that style, but I believe that we'll certainly continue to be a player in college soccer. We won't have to have a tough OOC schedule anymore to prove our bona fides.
That's probably the best thing about the move. SMU needs to be able to physically compete and not rely on superior skill. Football is a game where physicality is underappreciated.

It's a matter or personal preference. I prefer technical players. In my opinion, technical players will trump physical players. The best example of this is FC Barcelona. All of their players are extremeal talented and technical players, and they are the best team in the world.
