The NSR program is unmatched! We met Coach Robert Cagle in Phoenix for the Festival Volleyball Tournament. He mentioned that he wanted to talk about the recruiting process and I was skeptical but attended his seminar. I was blown away by his knowledge in not only the recruiting process but specifically the Volleyball recruiting process. He made it very clear that not every player gets selected to become an NSR athlete and that after thoroughly evaluating every player, his team will select the ones with talent and potential to dramatically increase their chances of being recruited as a collegiate athlete. After the in-person seminar, he personally evaluated our daughter and provided us with real feedback. He let us know she was an athlete he wanted to move forward in the process. We talked more with him and set up a zoom call where he took our daughter through a very thorough coach interview to determine if she was recruitable in all aspects. Coach Cagle chose to offer our daughter and began to talk about the specifics of the NSR tools. Within 15 minutes, we were convinced that Coach Robert Cagle/NSR and our daughter were a perfect fit. Robert walked us through using the NSR tools and his being personally involved in her process. Within days, we received a plethora of recruiting material and resources and as always, Coach Cagle made himself available day or night via text, calls, and/or zoom. Our daughter was mentored every step of the way and she took advantage of every tool available to her and his knowledge and many years of college recruiting experience. The combination of tools and personal expertise was a GAMECHANGER!! Needless to say, on June 15th of her Junior year, she was contacted by 80+ Division I Schools with not only interest but full-ride offers. A HUGE shoutout to Robert and the NSR team! They helped make my daughter's dream come true! read more

I have read several of these reviews on here about NSR. It's very clear that some of them are completely false as the pricing they refer to in the review isn't close to correct and over exaggerated!! So reader be aware that there are people trying to spread false information. NSR and coach Cagle was involved with both of my children's recruiting process. He was intricately involved with the process and was readily available to me and my family at every turn. The NSR reach with college coaches and the personal relationships with so many college coaches was nothing short of impressive !!! Both of my children received athletic and academic scholarships as a direct result of Coach Cagle and NSR. In fact, his assistance helped pay for about $270k of college expenses between my two kids!!! So, parents , you can read the garbage reviews and believe people that are intentionally trying to hurt a company OR you can read this and say " If nsr and coach Cagle can help a family with over $270k in money, I should probably listen to their guidance and direction. They are the real deal!!!!! read more

They may have some good scouts, but ours should never have engaged with us. She had a newborn and young children and was far more focused on them than the job we hired her to do. read more

You pay for the software for them to send out emails. The recruiter that I paid, Roy Fondaw and I spoke only 2 or 3 times from his junior year (May-End of November) his senior year season. He had no idea my son was injured, had surgery after 2 preseason games and was out the entire senior year season. How do you get an athlete recruited if you have no idea what his season looks like or that he is not even playing. Total waste of money and time. I would not give them a penny!!! A complete joke. read more

This is not a service that will enhance or assist in the overall exposure of your athlete in any way. My Granddaughter enrolled in the program because she was approached and contacted by a sales representative from NSR who claimed to have the ability and contacts to get her signed with a reputable school. Once our deposit cleared, we never heard from that individual again. What's more, the extent of NSR's "assistance" was to put her name, image and videos on their website for no schools to see. Do not waste your money with NSR. My Granddaughter was offered a full scholarship to a Division 1 soccer program. NSR was not even aware of it until 2 months after she signed and played no part in the recruitment process. Spend your time and money on showcases and ID camps instead of this service. read more

Unfortunately, NSR did not work for us. I applaud Robert Cagle for great salesman skills and abilities. We were led to believe that NSR was a smaller organization that had personal relationships with several schools and would maintain the personal touch with both of my athletes and be a champion for them. Robert convinced us that he would be a voice for us using his many "connections". In the end, this was far from what happened. They collected 5K for fees for both my sons and then the boys information went on their website. My sons rarely heard from Robert unless I contacted him. In all fairness the contract says its only legal responsibility is to put your athlete on their website. That's why I applaud Robert's salesmen ability. What we later found out why still trying to find a good program is that NSR actually works with colleges and filters out your son and/or daughter to which ever school they feel is a "fit." If you have an athlete who wants to go to a DII or D1 school and NSR feels they are not the right "fit" they will tell the coach, "Don't take this athlete or Don't waste your time." This makes NSR feel like they building trust with the coaches, in this network that they are building, that they claim to use for you. We had this happen to us at a camp. Had a great showing, and found out an NSR rep told one of their contacts at the school to not any waste time with us. I was in complete dismay. I have an organization that I "Paid in full" to help us and not only are they not championing for us but they are telling schools to not waste their energy on us. So I paid for someone to close doors vice open them. I actually had to stop telling NSR which camp we are going to in fear the would say something negative about my athletes. To sum this whole experience up, I found out what was going on, how athletes are really being used for back and forth hand shakes between NSR scouts and coaches. Coaches don't need to recruit, they just ask NSR and NSR says yes or no and then the coach moves on. We asked for another NSR scout and was told no, we were routed back to the same scout who spoke negatively about our athletes. Finally to sum it all up, once the boys were out of high school our login access to the NSR site was removed and yet one of the boys was still working with some large programs. All the film and information posted was taken away. Lesson learned don't spend the 5K on an organization that is going to not champion for your kid and shut doors that you believe they can open. read more

We have nothing but great things to say about National Scouting Report (NSR). Our athlete signed up to be scouted at a tournament. We were contacted by the scout and received nothing but candid and open feedback, as well as strong support that our athlete could find a place to play in college. We did our homework and researched NSR, having never been involved in the recruiting process. Once we signed on, we have been treated fairly and honestly and our time and our finances have been valued. From the time the database added our athlete, we began receiving inquiries from coaches serious at looking closer at our athlete. As we were able to make progress in the recruitment, updates were handled quickly and enhanced the information about our athlete. We were able to track interest in colleges so we could look at those schools to see if they were a good fit. That feature alone was exceedingly beneficial, as we found schools we wouldn't have considered. The process from scouting, to conversations, to visits, to offers and to commitment went so smoothly. We cannot say enough about NSR and what they did to help our athlete find the right fit and a the right school and the right offer. read more
