Lets muddy the waters a bit.
Now, suppose the defensive player has stepped out on the line, then picks his foot up. So, now one foot is in bounds, and the other is in the air.
Forget legal guarding position for a minute since that will not apply. But, the defensive player has the right to that spot since he was there first, then an offenisve player goes into him, it should be on the offense.
Now take it one step further. The defense has a legal guarding position, moves laterally, oops he steps on the line, so he raises his out of bounds foot, then BAM. How will you determine who the foul is on?
