Had that scenario in a playoff game a few years back. Kid running off just prior to snap and tried to "long jump" off the field. I was
able to clearly see he wasn't OOB or even touching OOB. When the WH gave the coach the definition of OOB, pretty much verbatum to what you have there...all was quiet.
