While MLS has released hardly anything on the SuperDraft, the draft is slated to take place on January 11th.

Red Bulls have the 15th pick in each round:
15, 43, and 71. We also have the 73rd pick for the rights to Aziel Jackson.

A few weeks ago there was a college combine for 44 NCAA players. None (to the best of my knowledge) had ties to RBNY Academy or U23s.


I believe the following academy prospects were Seniors or Grad students this year:

Kevin O'Toole (Princeton) - solid left back who played higher up the field in college. Was the first regular academy starter for NYRBII back in 2016 and to date, the only academy player to have played in the playoffs.
Kaz Shigenobu (Princeton) - played in 11 matches for NYRBII in 2016/2017. Solid midfielder that is worth a shot with NYRBII.
Mason Deeds (Penn State) - once a highly touted prospect, has fallen off drastically when at Georgetown, moved to Penn State and played with Reading United last year after not doing so well with our U23s in 2019.
Jordan Bailon (Dartmouth) - played a couple games for NYRBII in 2018. Defender.

JP Marin (Seton Hall), Jon Filipe (Fairfield), Skylar Conway (Marist), and Zach Ryan (Stanford) I believe are all college seniors that spent some time with NYRBII but never made it into a match. Only Zach Ryan (Redshirt Senior) made the bench back in 2016, 2017. Sam Ilin also a senior but I believe has distanced himself from the organization.

otoole should get a deal and they liked what they saw from him with u-23 they wished he could have played rb2 over the summer. One coach said he would have been one of the best players on that team. The rest I could go either way on

Any idea if he is interested

Agreed - O'Toole played so well in 2016 as an academy player.

The crazy part is that he played forward (and well) for Princeton and was a 2 time Ivy League Offensive POTY. 7g and 9a this season.

If you want a wingback that gets forward and allows Tolkin to slide inside, this is the guy.

They only have pick #82 left. They traded their first pick last year for GAM and they just traded Julian Carranza to Miami (on loan) for their second round pick a couple weeks ago.

For the 2010 draft, I pulled my 12-year old out of school and took him to Philly, with pages of mock draft notes in hand.     One of my fondest parenting memories.  All the original Philly chants, Sweep The Leg Tchani, tormenting Garber, Albright coming over and sitting with us a bit...   great day, not even counting Tim Ream.   There was little or no thought at the time of the draft becoming obsolete.   Instead, we were thinking about how we were on ESPN, how cool that was, and how it would just get bigger.

Lots of fun at those Drafts in Philly & BMore.

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.
