Why would you think the rule wouldn't be consistent in both situations?

You may or may not find a "particular play in the books," but all you have to do is read the rule regarding when a player is OOB to know how to apply it to this situation.

7-1-1
A player is out of bounds when he/she touches the floor, or any object other than a player/person, on or outside a boundary.

I really don't understand why that rule is difficult to find or understand.
