1: Yes! Indy was announced to make the move up to the Super League once Eleven Park was completed. Now that Eleven Park isn't happening, timeline is unknown for their move to professional status. No new information regarding the stadium situation (nor anything on the MLS effort).
2. Yes and yes! I saw it recently on my drive up to Fort Wayne to see my in-laws.
3. If I had to guess, it was bc the team found it more lucrative to seek warm-up kits (the corn kit, spiderman, cow kit, etc). Given the more matches (USL Cup + USOC), expanding what they wear was a necessity. I always like color, so call it a preference :)
Thanks for this great content, Brett! Three questions:
- Indy11 womens: does Indy11 have plans to eventually elevate their USL-W team to the USL SuperLeague? Or that is awaiting the stadium situation? Any updates on Indy11's own stadium (or the unsavory MLS solicitation by the mayor)?
- Fort Wayne FC: is this the club that will imminently be going to USL1, and who is building their own stadium?
- Jersey: Why didn't Indy11 release third kits for the past 4 years (until now)? You would think that's hundreds of thousands of potential jersey sales lost?? Regarding more color --in a hyperpolarized world, color may be too risky --just sayin'?

DeMarcus Beasley is a co-owner of the Ft. Wayne club --hopefully you'll see more of him along with your in-laws!

Fort Wayne got a shout-out in this recent BT90-affiliated segment, at about the 26.50 mark!
