The gist of the story is this:

Team A inbounds the ball, they in effect take a shot at the basket.
Player from Team A tips the ball in while it is over the cylinder.
It counts because a "shot" from out of bounds is not legal and goaltending (offensive or defensive) cannot be called if the shot attempt is not a legal shot attempt.

Not sure if the college rule is the same.

I believe the same rule would apply in a college game. NCAA rules say that "goaltending occurs when a defensive player touches the ball during a
field-goal try." By definition, a FG cannot be scored on a throw-in, so presumably that is not a field-goal try.

Goaltending can only occur if the there is a try for a goal. The inbound pass is not a try.
