    2014 MLS adidas Player Combine
    [​IMG]

    MLS on Wednesday unveiled the list of 50 NCAA Division I college seniors invited to showcase their talents at the 2014 adidas MLS Player Combine from January 10-14 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

    They will hope to do enough to impress the 19 MLS coaching staffs on hand to get selected in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft that will take place on January 16 in Philadelphia (noon ET).

    The list is highlighted by Maryland senior forward Patrick Mullins (pictured above), who won the 2012 Hermann Trophy award as the top player in college soccer. He will be battling for an NCAA championship at PPL Park this weekend as the No. 5 Terrapins battle Virginia in one of the College Cup semifinals on Friday (7:30 pm ET, ESPNU). The other Friday semi will see New Mexico taking on Notre Dame (5 pm ET. ESPNU), in a game featuring four players invited to the Combine

    Check the highlights of interviews with top prospects at adidas MLS Player Combine

    LAUDERHILL, Fla. -- Saturday was an off-day in between doubleheaders at the 2014 adidas MLS Player Combine and MLSsoccer.com took advantage of the downtime to chat with a group of the participants. A series of curious anecdotes emerged from the sit-downs:

    Generation adidas signing and arguably the top right back in the SuperDraft, Creighton's Eric Miller, revealed that he probably wouldn't be on the verge of a pro career had it not been for the fact that his tee ball coach never called his house to follow up about joining the team. So he took up soccer instead
