THE webpage, address and accreditation are all warning signs. Especially the accreditation source. The first time I became aware of the NBCA was with John Melvin University (Louisiana). That's not saying they're not legitimate, but NBCA is not recognized as are ABHE and TRACS. So I'm going to follow them more closely.

I agree, no NCCAA or NAIA here.

Occasionally one of these marginal teams does transition to legitimacy - North American University was in sort of the same category before they did whatever was necessary to become an NAIA team a couple of years ago.
