Under NCAA rules, the BALL must cross the goal line IN BOUNDS (the pylon is out of bounds) in order for it to be considered a touchdown. However, if the ball crosses the goal line out of bounds (extended goal line), it can still be a touchdown if the player touches any part of the end zone inbounds prior to being out of bounds.
So if the ball crosses inbounds, it doesn't matter what happens with the player. Ball crosses out of bounds, part of the player must touch. This is NCAA; Fed probably differs - at least slightly.
