NFHS 7-1-1: A player is out of bounds when he/she touches the floor, or any object other than a player/person, on or outside a boundary.
NFHS 7.1.1 Situation A: A1, while holding the ball inbounds near the sideline, touches (a) player B1; (b) a photographer; (c) a coach; (d) an official, all of whom are out of bounds. Ruling: A1 is not out of bounds in (a), (b), (c), or (d). To be out of bounds, A1 must touch the floor or some object on or outside a boundary line. People are not considered to be objects and play continues. Inadvertently touching someone who is out of bounds, without gaining an advantage, is not considered a violation.
What's the college rule and interpretation?
Spencer did not purposely touch Hurley (Hurley purposely touched Spencer).
Spencer did not inadvertently touch someone who is out of bounds, but there certainly was an advantage gained.
