Can't help with the NCAA rule, but for High School football (other than Texas & Mass. who use the NCAA code), no player of the offense (A), or kicking team (K), can go out of bounds, unless blocked out of bounds by an opponent. If that polayer is blocked out of bounds by an opponent, and returns inbounds he must do it at the first opportunity.

Additionally, during a down, NO player shall INTENTIONALLY go out of bounds and return.

The penalty, for either situation, is Illegal Participation, which occurs when he comes back in bounds after having gone out of bounds in a prohibited manner.
