NCAA Football SCouting & Recruiting Agencies vs Coaching, news, events & Media/Sports Companies9/13/2018 Recruiting/Scouting Service Definition, Legislation & RequirementsDefinition of a Recruiting and Scouting Service
"A recruiting or scouting service includes any individual, organization, entity or segment of an entity that primarily provides information about prospective student-athletes.
This definition does not include any individual, organization, entity or segment of an entity that primarily provides information about prospective student-athletes incidental to its primary purpose and is generally available to the public (e.g., news media)." - Per NCAA.Org
We have seen many of our students-athletes over the past three years lose recruiting stock and opportunities at NCAA accredited institutions that fail to recognize the rules pertaining to recruiting that have been set forth by the NCAA. These players still went on scholarships to NAIA and lower level NCAA programs, but could not acquire a big time FBS scholarship in fear of eligibility issues by the big time college staffs that were recruiting them. If their sole purpose is put you in school on scholarship, it therefore is deemed a recruiting service. If this entity does not go through the proper procedures in order to become such a service, the athletes using that "service" will be deemed ineligible to participate in the NCAA if reported. The issue with "recruiting services" that "contract" or charge the college programs to access their material have very little subscribers from speaking with collegiate staffs. They have outside networks that they have relied on for years that have former athletes and coaches alike, whose opinion is far more valuable than a newbie in this brutal industry that will take a student-athlete's money, while knowingly ruining their chances at the next level.
Definition of a Subscription
An institution subscribes to a recruiting or scouting service when a staff member registers to access information provided by the service only to paid subscribers or registers to access information available only to a select group of individuals (e.g., coaches), regardless of whether a charge is associated with accessing the information. However, an institution is not considered to have subscribed to a recruiting or scouting service if a staff member registers to access information about prospective student-athletes from a service that provides the same information to the general public at no cost. Per - NCAA
Companies like NCSA are contracted with smaller programs and are getting money from both the recruit and mostly D3/NAIA and Juco programs, as they need these services.

We have seen many companies sprout up that claim to be scouting or recruiting agencies that ARE NOT approved the NCAA. While their athletes can be seen and they might offer some training in whatever areas, they are still illegal if you study the NCAA compliance and enforcement handbook.
Our program combines all of the exposure needed through our media platform that has now had nearly 1 million visitors to both of our websites. We now have over 1 billion views and visits on our social media platforms, while also having coached hundreds of athletes in position specific technique training and combine training that has enhanced numbers drastically. Our 2018 Scout Trout All-American Bowl brought in 15 FBS localized programs and many more at other levels. As we follow our players and the 2018 college football season, we wanted to make sure that everyone is clear on what is LEGAL and what is ILLEGAL for student-athletes and after coaching over 300 athletes that played on scholarship (some NFL), I can say that the past three years have been a joy to see so many athletes succeed through a program not only built off of over 12 years playing the game after high school, but through vast studies of the college recruiting process and what it takes to succeed at the highest level attainable for each Student-Athlete.
