The NCAA has a ranking of all the d1 programs (as well as d3 and d3).
You can get really good information on the "Athletic Recruits" forum of collegeconfidental.com. There are threads on soccer ID camps, the recruiting process etc. Really helpful, and there are posters who have been through the process already than answer questions.
Another resource is the d3boards, there's a soccer subforum.
A book I like, because it sets out the recruiting process in an orderly way is THE ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIP HANDBOOK (on Amazon). It is just as useful if you are wanting to play in college but not looking for a scholarship.
The main thing to figure out is your son's soccer level. My opinion is that your main focus should be on the level where he will be an impact player. Those coaches will really want him, which makes the process easier. Well, I think it does, I have a junior so I'm not that far ahead of you!
