Anthony Precourt
Precourt Sports Ventures pursued a move of the Columbus Crew to Austin, prompting a supporter revolt.
The proposed relocation became a fight over a club’s civic identity and who controlled its future. The eventual arrangement kept the Crew in Columbus and gave Precourt a separate Austin team. Criticism of the strategy is not a criminal allegation.
