ABOUT NUC
Schuman’s National Underclassmen Combine (NUC) is the longest running underclassmen event and the most
respected combine and football camp in the country. Founded in 2005, NUC was formed to create a focused
environment that allows freshmen, sophomores and juniors to showcase their skills and talents for college recruiters
and recruiting organizations, giving each student-athlete ample opportunity to get recruited throughout his high
school career, not just the spring before his senior year. Since its inception, more than 50,000 athletes have come
through NUC events and more than 2,000 athletes to date have received Division-I scholarships after first attending
an NUC event. For more information on NUC All-World Gridiron Classic, go to Nationalunderclassmen.com
