Hmmm, not sure I agree with this. At any given moment a player is either in bounds or oob, based on where he/she is touching the floor or last touched the floor. Same with back court/front court and in the key/not in the key. Thus the truism, "you are where you were until you get where you're going" to describe the position of an airborne player.
There's no such thing as establishing position OOB, so as to not cause the ball to be OOB if the player touches it.

I wasn't referring to any other aspect of inbounds/OOB.
Okay, now I'm with you. I was using the phrase to mean the same as "being oob" with the implication that the player now completely met the criteria in 7-2-2 and did cause the ball to be oob.
