Shaq replied that he talked to his children about this but added he always lets them figure it out. The proud father then revealed Me’arah has been receiving college offers. He said, “I didn’t get letters when I was 13, 14. Babygirls already starting to get letters. So she’s already starting to get to it.”

The former MVP added that he does not put everything on a platter for his children. He noted they know they can always come to him for advice whenever required.

Turner then asked whether Shaq would be mad if a coach recruits Me’arah and then moves to a different school.

Shaq added the next head coach did not give his son a chance.
