NCAA book downstairs, but NFHS 5.2.1.c sit a says it should be a three and gives no consideration to "chance to go in"
Is the NCAA rule the same?

The relevant NFHS case play would be 4.41.4B, not 5.2.1.c
4.41.4 SITUATION B: A1’s three-point try is short and below ring level when it hits the shoulder of: (a) A2; or (b) B1 and rebounds to the backboard and through the basket. RULING: The three-point try ended when it was obviously short and below the ring. However, since a live ball went through the basket, two points are scored in both (a) and (b). (5-1)
The only difference is that the shot was way long and had completely passed the rim (note where the tap back hit the board before it dropped in the basket) and it was hit by a hand and not a shoulder.
NCAA
A.R. 135. A ball passed from behind the three-point line:
(1) Enters the basket from above and passes through;
(2) Is deflected and enters the basket from above and passes
through; or
RULING: (1) A three-point goal shall be counted.
(2) When there is no possibility of the ball entering the basket from
above and the deflection causes the goal to be successful, it shall be a
two-point goal. However, when a ball is passed in the direction of the
basket with the possibility of entering the basket from above and the
deflection does not influence its success, a three-point goal shall be
counted.
