if he goes out on his own volition(sp) i don't think he can be the first to come in and touch it... but i think this play, where he is diving to save a ball and slides out of bounds, i'm pretty sure that as long as he establishes in bounds status he can be the first to get the ball!!! Seems like you would be penalizing good hustle, but that wouldn't be the first time the rules did that...
