That's correct. The count starts when the ball is at the disposal of the inbounding team. The time available for the opposing team to request a TO ends when the ball is at the disposal of the inbounding team.

The problem is that "at the disposal" is not clearly (at least in my mind) defined. I use "has the ball OOB or reasonably could have had the ball OOB". And, it's all judgment.
