## Resource

On this episode of Inside College Soccer, host Don Williams sat down with Kyle Segebart, the head men’s soccer coach at University of Central Arkansas, for an in-depth conversation about the rapidly changing landscape of NCAA Division I soccer. Coach Segebart discussed his coaching journey, which includes stops at Western Washington University, the University of Dayton, Saginaw Valley State, Franklin College, and Midland University before joining Central Arkansas in 2022 and being promoted to head coach in December 2024. As both a former collegiate and professional player, Segebart brings a unique perspective to the modern recruiting environment and player development process. Don and Kyle dove into several major topics shaping college soccer today, including the proposed NCAA Division I men’s soccer two-semester model and the latest discussions surrounding the “5 in 5” legislation proposal. The conversation also explored the growing national debate around the SCORE Act and how federal legislation could impact NIL, athlete compensation, eligibility, and the future structure of college athletics. Another major focus of the episode was the increasing importance of junior college soccer in the Division I recruiting pipeline. Coach Segebart explained why JUCO programs are becoming more valuable than ever for player development, maturity, and roster building as coaches navigate the transfer portal and changing roster management rules. This episode provides valuable insight for players, parents, coaches, and recruits trying to understand where college soccer is headed and how to best prepare for the evolving recruiting process.
