NTangible has added a new element to Future Stars Series Signature events over the last year. In addition to athletic testing, FSS staff scouting and development, and data collected by Trackman, NTangible tests a player’s ability to handle pressure situations on the field.
As we race toward our Fresh 50, Underclass Premier, Underclass Elite, and Main Event, we have NTangible results from our National and Underclass Combines, which just concluded July 30 in Houston.
The average high school score through early May was 668, while FSS players scored an average of 711.
Across every dataset we’ve analyzed so far, high school athletes scoring 750 or higher on the NTangible scale are separating themselves. What used to be “gut feel” now has data behind it.
Around 95% of all college-committed athletes scoring 750+ are going Division 1.
Athletes in that top range are more than twice as likely to commit to a D1 program compared to athletes scoring below 750.
This is a powerful threshold. These athletes consistently test higher in composure, decision-making, and performance under pressure; traits that don’t just predict success, they scale with competition level. It’s becoming clear that the > 750 score isn’t just a reflection of current ability; it’s a marker of future potential. And in many cases, it’s highlighting players who can compete at higher levels of play.
