It probably won't be too much longer until hockey prospects begin to come out of the Southern states, especially Texas. Hockey is fully integrated into the South and it was funny how some Canadians couldn't stand the thought of the Cup being won in Dallas. Auto racing, mainly NASCAR, generates insane amounts of money and attendance in the South-Southeast region. Wrestling remains huge at many universities in the Midwest area of the country, but isn't close to being a core sport to most universities in Texas that I know of.
