Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Apparently the billboard worked.....
Ivisic posted a video on social media announcing the news, with Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart confirming it moments later.
"Hey BBN, guess what? I'm free," Ivisic said. "See y'all tonight at the game. Thank you for all the support. Go BBN!"
A 7-foot-2 center from Croatia, Ivisic was considered one of the best international prospects entering college basketball this season, with scouts impressed by his shot-making and finishing ability.
But he wasn't admitted into the school until early October and has been awaiting clearance from the NCAA for the past three months.
Kentucky fans attempted to put pressure on the NCAA earlier this month when it raised money to put up a #FreeBigZ billboard near NCAA headquarters.
