I've had them make the "first to touch" call. I've had them make the call and claim the player needed to get both feet down in bounds before he could touch it.
Sadly, things can be incorrect in the most uncharacteristic places. Viewed a girls hs regional game last week where the seemingly veteran official called a "travel" on a girl on a sideline OB play , then compounded his error by saying, right in front of the bench, "You can't move your feet during an in-bounds..."
Didn't affect the outcome of the game, but one can only be gratified it didn't get called with the game tied and five seconds to go...
