The official invitation list for the NFL scouting combine is out, and there are plenty of ACC players who will participate in the four-day job interview in Indianapolis from Feb. 18-24. Just because a player didn't make the list doesn't mean he won't be drafted, but here are the ACC players by school who were invited to the combine. UNC players making the list are as follows:
--Brooks Foster, wide receiver
--Hakeem Nicks, wide recevier
--Richard Quinn, tight end
