There are plenty of pro sports teams in the other Texas cities. San Antonio is not far. Houston now has three stadiums downtown. It is redundant to have pro sports in Austin IMO especially with the Longhorns. If pro sports are important to someone, they can move to one of the state's other great cities, or make the occasional trip to the games.

Minor league teams are "pro" sports teams. The OP asked about "professional" teams so that should include the Texas Stars and Austin Toros. So we have two "pro" teams in Austin (three if you want to count the overpaid Longhorn athletes).
