Cameron Carter-Vickers at Celtic

Yea...you win Bigsoccer.

 

US Soccer thinks quite highly of Cameron Carter-Vickers.

Here is an interview on his rise within US Soccer

 

great interview. can't wait to see him play...i've always hoped for a basketball player connection to turn out!

 

Howard Carter, eh?

His nickname was "Hi-C"

 

Fabian Johnson's dad was also an expat b-ball player.

 

what does his competition in the england youth setup look like?

 

don't think i knew that...but fabian johnson does not look like a man whose dad was a basketball player. this guy does. with basketball being as popular as it is here, one day we'll have a top, top basketball-body athlete choose soccer over b-ball and he will be immensely fun to watch.

 

Which age group?

 

What does the son of a basketball player look like?

 

holy crap his dad is Hi-C? I loved that guy. He's the first LSU basketball player I actually remember (I was 5 his last year at LSU)



He's first uniformed player, top row, far left. #32

 

tall, fast, athletic. a mix between eddie johnson/yedlin and peter crouch.

 

Something like this?

 

Anybody feel like giving me some good odds on this guy making the 2018 WC squad?

 

England's or ours?

 

He's now started two in a row. He's almost a full year younger than Zelalem who's playing at the same level.

 

^It also seems unlikely that Zelalem will actually get his American citizenship. The clock's ticking

 

Do have any estimate on the kids height? I haven't seen a number.

 

The number I've heard bandied about is ridiculously tall.

 

and that number is .....?

 

If we are still talking about CCV, in a picture he looks to be at least 4 inches taller than Collin Fernandez, and Collin is listed at 5'8. So best guess is CCV around 6'2 and strong. CCV is 16 y.o.
