14. I know multiple families who had great success with them

I wouldnt listen to any of the people encouraging you not to move forward with this company if you are looking to get the best chance to get to the best school for your child. I am a father and was asking around for my children on where to start, what to do, etc. I did not get recruited in high school even though I had letters, phone calls, etc and had many people telling me they would help me. After talking to several families in my area (green bay WI), it appears there are some bad apples out there in the recruiting services world but every family I spoke with about NCSA had nothing but awesome things to say.

They did say that if you just sign up and expect miracles to happen, then you are probably going to be disappointed. You do have to get in to their system and use it but they all told me that they would have never gotten to the schools they did without them.

One family, in particular, was going in to their senior year of football in the Green Bay area. Their high school coach told them not to do it, it was a waste and he would help the family even though he didnt think the kid was good enough to play in college. Turns out they decided to do it anyway because they were late in the game and didnt have any real connections yet and within 3 days they had 50 emails from different coaches. A few months later this kid signed with the University of Minnesota on a full ride offer. They also have people to help with questions. They sited one instance where a coach at Purdue tried to get them to sign an offer and because of the guidance they got before going in to the meeting with Purdue, they didnt sign despite a hard sales pitch by the coach or recruiter for Purdue. They ended up with a much better offer at a better school for the kid because of the coaching they got from NCSA.

I would recommend that any family who wants help at least goes through and talks with them. I know I don't have the time or connections and I learned from my experience not to rely on coaches or other people. Things have changed a lot, even in the last 5 years with technology and in a lot of industries. Each person can make their own decision but I am going to be in touch as my children get a little older and know they want to play in college.
