The nation’s first collective of top college prospects from across America will take place December 26-27th in Detroit, MI. 

For two days, the national conglomerate initiative will focus on bolstering recruiting opportunities, maximizing exposure and marketing strategies, and educating athletes on branding framework surrounding NIL opportunities. Day one for all college prospects will consist of attending the Quick Lane Bowl at Ford Field featuring Bowling Green vs. New Mexico State, followed by the Supermax 100 Combine held at Total Sports Complex in Wixom. Each athlete will take photos and receive official measurements and data such as the 40yrd dash testing. Day two will occur at Ford Field, where all college prospects will participate in the NIL Academy, Pro Day, Video Showcase, and the highly anticipated live stream 7-on-7. Lastly, the Supermax docuseries will be launching and capturing top athletes.
