I know more about quantum mechanics than I do about NCAA rules, but I'm pretty sure that the NCAA (college) rule regarding an airborne player about to go out of bounds while possessing the ball and requesting a timeout changed a few years ago, making it illegal to grant such a timeout.

While I'm unsure about the NCAA rule, I'm 100% sure that the timeout will be granted in such a situation under NFHS (high school) rules.

Hopefully one of the esteemed members of this Forum will be moseying along shortly to confirm my interpretation. I guess that they're all watching football, or raking leaves, as I'm about to do in a few minutes..
