LaVar Ball: “since LeBron left, I brought you a Ball boy”

LaMelo Ball made his grand appearance in Cleveland today and LaVar was ready with the hyperbole as you can see from the quote from above.
What I found more interesting is the quote below.
LaMelo Ball said he hopes to play college basketball at a top school. Mentioned North Carolina, Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, Michigan State.

I asked Ben Axelrod how was that possible considering LaMelo dropped out of HS, hired an agent, played ball overseas and in JBA and has his own signature shoe.
According to Axelrod, LaVar believes because LaMelo never took any money he is still eligible. I have contacted the NCAA to see if we can get some clarification on that.
Until then Cleveland has a show on their hand that might be better than Cavs right now.
