Discussions with the faculty at his current school will be most helpful - the younger faculty know the scoop on how their peers from various PhD programs have fared and who the good advisors are and who to stay away from. The senior faculty can be useful in making connections with faculty elsewhere who have funding for students in the area your son wants to specialize in. Word of mouth is big in learning about PhD programs.
