Chapter Chapter 3 in An Absence of Competition, 2013, pp 23-40 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract As a rival league, the USFL was quite unremarkable. It lasted only 3 years, had numerous franchise and ownership changes, and lost tens of millions of dollars. Perhaps more importantly, it failed to gain the merger with the NFL that so many of the upstart league’s owners desperately sought.
