i may be wrong but if that boy is out of mlb,after 3 weeks or a season he can still play college ball? maybe not d1? there is a ncaa rule that allows players that don't make it in the minors to play in college. i believe they need to pay back some money? not 100% sure.and if he only lasted a short time he may not have recieved his signing bonus,only some per diem money.

i think if the original player in this question leaves school ,he is a free agent? probably won't get much money if any to sign.this may be worth looking into.

my son signed a contract in june ,needed tommy john so the team voided his contract. now he can sign as a free agent or go to school and play. the team he was with had dozens of free agents in camp.keep in mind only usa college and high school kids get drafted,the rest of the world are free agents. i didn't realize this either.
