[The Contrarian]

IMHO - Best to save your $80 and the gas it takes to get there. NUC is a slick marketing job. They sell a dream. They spam you. There is a constant drumbeat to up-sell - pricier camps, extra training, combine prep, elite this or national that -- ...the message is "if you just buy this" then you have a better chance at fame.

You can do the exact things NUC does on your own field. You need a weight bench, cones, a tape measure, and a stopwatch. If you are good or have potential - colleges will find you. I have read more than one account of poorly organized combines and/or recording the wrong stats for kids. Just my opinion.

Tica, I think you're right on! NUC is a money making endeavor. Selling the product (NUC) is certainly the objective of these camps.

I've lived life for quite a few years now, and one thing I remember that was stated to me by a very wise instructor: "Everyone has an agenda, always remember this."

And to quote another poster on this site, but maybe this is more of a paraphrase, this particular combine was a joke.
