The NCAA has added a section to Rule 9 (Violations) this year that prohibits a person from being the first to touch the ball after going OOB of his/her own volition.

So if the official determined that the player went OOB on purpose, it would be a violation for him to come back inbounds and continue his dribble. If his momentum took him OOB, then he's still allowed to come back and retrieve the ball.
