Think about. How many people care about USA Basketball. Is there even a USA Football?
People don't really care about soccer in the US. High school basketball and football get more coverage that MLS soccer. People care even less about the USMNT that play in a WC once every 4 year.... in our case once in 8 years.
It is just not in our culture.
Also, soccer as in most sports requires a certain amount of skills which take time to develop. Just because Usain Bolt is not successful in his attempt to make it in soccer does not mean that he would not have been very successful if he had focused on soccer instead of track. You can't simply put a big fast kid and expect him play at the NBA level.
