We couldn’t be more proud of this @NXTGenRecruits Class of 2027, They’ve trusted us, bought into our process, and never doubted our guidance! They are proof that the our system works when fully adapted and utilized, when you don’t give up, stay positive, and work hard you earn what you desire! We are not here to take credit for their efforts, we’ve advised, mentored, and mostly motivated these athletes along their journey but with the most recent offer we’re happy to announce 100% of our 2027 athletes have at least 1 offer to play at the next level. We aren’t satisfied or finished with these outstanding athletes yet, there is still plenty of work to be done, however it’s exciting to announce that football doesn’t have to stop for any of them, if they don’t want it to! Congratulations #NXTGENELITE Class of 2027! You’ve EARNED it!

As we officially enter playoffs, @NXTGenRecruits is proud to bring you our first official Playoff Power Rankings! Below you'll find the Playoff Power Rankings You'll also find out which teams are locked in for playoffs and who just missed out! *First Week of Playoffs Power Rankings is Solely Based on Playoff Points* #NXTGENELITE

Our sole 8-Man Victory came from a familiar face on Friday as #NXTGENELITE Student-Athlete @GabeKauffman09 & @MontabellaA took home a 73-0 whooping over Tekonsha to close the regular season. Montabella finished the season (9-0) in terms of actual scoreboard victories however, their record will reflect (8-1) after an early season forfeit due to a player ineligibility situation! Regardless a historic season from the Mustangs!
