I agree. Difficult to explain to the coach, but that's the rule as I understand it. Page 55 in the NF case book has that exact scenario. Incomplete pass.

Rule 2.4.3 says a simultaneous catch or recovery is a catch or recovery in which there is joint possesion of a live ball by opposing players who are INBOUNDS.
So, if they are not both inbounds you do not have a simultaneous catch. If both players appear to possess the ball equally, incomplete pass.
