Possible Recruit from England


Recommended Posts

Dominant soccer, a great out of conference schedule, new facilities, the best coach in the NCAA, and soon to be :NCAAC:

Enough said! AKRON!

There is no way of knowing if this player is actually a player. Notice the poster did NOT mention Steve Zakuani, so he might not be familiar with Akron -- and so vice versa. Let me assure you, if this kid is Akron material, Oliver Slawson and Caleb will do all they need to provide him am opportunity. Otherwise, I would wish him good luck at Fort Lewis State, a really nice program and location to attend college.

But he DID mention Zakuani in post #7 and #8.

Thanks for pointing that out Zach. :D I read Mike's original post, and then scanned the rest of the thread. I probably missed it -- but I may have looked at it before those were posted, not sure. I'll edit my own post there.

Does anyone remember this thread? It took me a while to find it, but I can tell you now that the player who was being shopped on Bigsoccer was the most recent Akron recruit -- David Mayer.

Good call Z.I.P. I do vaguely remember this. Pretty cool!

Do we know much about David's skills & best position?

He is a left back who was recently cut from Wigan FC's youth program

From Mike-10's BigSoccer comments, David is 19 Y.O. as of this summer. He started for Wigan youth at LB.

Hey -- I have to correct myself (belatedly, been knocked out with sinus infection this week) about this player. The English coach I was in contact with told me that I had made the wrong guess. The player he wrote about -- who attended the February camp @Akron did not get 'picked-up' by the team. David Mayer is another prospect, and I believe a VERY good player, even by UK standards.

Lucky beyond belief, ZIP In Paradise, take a quick visit to the ocean and do a little swimming.

That wonderful Pacific salt water does wonders for the sinuses. I speak from experience. Dayum,

I miss my Wednesday evening visits to Ono Hawai'ian Food. You lucky stiff. Aloha, Brudda

I did hear from a good source over the weekend David Mayer will be starting classes in the summer
