If this doesn't gives USMNT fans a boner then nothing will

Cameron Carter Vickers is the son of LSU basketball legend Howard Carter. He was one of the standouts of our U-20 world cup qualifying campaign, starting every game at CB, despite having just turned 17. He is now playing with the Tottenham U-21s and apparently looks the part:

However, Bongani Khumalo and Cameron Carter-Vickers kept Falcao quiet all night and Carter-Vickers came closest to a winner in the second half when his header came back off the crossbar.

Since he played in the CONCACAF tourney is he officially USMNT and can't switch to England?

Dude's going to be special if he keeps it up. Regardless of fitness levels, a young American boss locking down Falcao is something I can drink to.

Based on the title, I was hoping for a picture of Stu.

I don't think so. I know that that was an issue when Zelalem rejected that Germany youth qualifying tournament call up, but that was because he didn't have American citizenship at the time of that tourny. I think CCV can still switch, and to do so he would have to file his one time switch. I think if he plays in the U-20 WC though he might be cap tied. Fabian Johnson played for Germany in a U-21 Uefa qualifying tourney and started in the final.

Since he already has citizenship for both countries, I think the only thing that will tie him to either country is a cap in a competitive USMNT match or his one time switch to England.

Getting a lot of sustenance from this thread bro

I want to see an interview with him where he professes his love for America and pledges his future to us. Until then I will always worry about England poaching him.

Is it assumed this kid is going to end up playing for the US or is it still up in the air?

He has told family and friends he is committed to the U.S. He made his switch. It's a done deal. Kid is more american than Apple pie. Apple pie made in Berlin but immediately taken out of the oven and placed in America to cool off.

Yeah, that's the metaphor I'm going with.
