Not a whole hell of a lot.  Remember, even if the full version ends up being
12 teams of full rosters (unlikely - it probably will be more like an
additional four to eight players per roster) you're not talking a whole hell
of a lot relative to the PDL ["Fourth Division, amateur by rule"] - which
has TONS of teams (55?!?!?!?).

And this is where most of the young kids would come from.

Keep in mind that the A-League probably has more veteran players as opposed
to the guys that MLS would be looking at for this kind of a thing.

And the PSL ("Third Division") has some talent MLS would be looking at and a
number of teams (12).

So even if you took 12 whole PDL teams, you would still have 43!

It is possible, with how thin the PSL is, that this division might die.

But overall - the USL will survive.
