Based on rules set forth by the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA), Section V Football has denied East High School student athlete Seven McGee the right to play football this season, according to East Superintendent Dr. Shaun Nelms.
Wow that is messed up. Let the kid play.
Seriously. It's not like a high school kid can buy a house and move across the country. They are punishing McGee for the actions of his parents.

My impression is it's the utter indifference and incompetence of Narbonne High not furnishing his transcript. He didn't participate in organized athletics while in California so presumably the one year waiting period would be met.
A student who transfers without a corresponding change in residence of his/her parents (or other persons with whom the student has resided for at least six months prior) is ineligible to participate at the varsity level in any interscholastic athletic contest in a particular sport for a period of one (1) year if as a 9-12 student participated in that sport during the one (1) year period immediately preceding his/her transfer.
