The RTN Platform
Football information becomes more valuable when the full story is connected.
Recruit the Nation is a football intelligence platform that discovers, connects, analyzes, highlights, and explains the players, teams, trends, and recruiting stories that matter to fans, athletes, coaches, and families.
By bringing national data, regional coverage, and original football insight together, RTN makes high school football easier to follow and the recruiting process easier to understand.

Get the Edge, Get Exposure!
As a person who has covered high school football for the past 28 years and who is attending the best games each weekend in the fall, I know our publications will help college coaches across the country recruit the Midwest Region more efficiently, and our coverage will shine a light on all these prospects and teams, creating more opportunities for them.
With this in mind, we are excited to present the Recruit the Nation 2026 Midwest High School Football Preseason Scouting Report.
We cannot let the chaotic college football landscape overshadow all the great performances at the high school level. Instead of complaining about the new challenges high school athletes face, we need to focus on new strategies and resources to make it easier for college coaches to recruit the region.
