We used the following "catch phase" for DPI ... "spot, 15 or 2; which ever comes first."
Translated it means from the Line of Scrimmage (outside the 2 yard line):
1 ... if you come to the DPI spot before you go 15 yards, it is a Spot Foul
2 ... if you go 15 yards before you reach the DPI spot, it is a 15 yard penality
3 ... if you reach the 2 yard line before you react the DPI spot or 15 yards, the enforcement spot is the 2 yard line.
4 ... if snapped inside the 2 yard line, half the distance.
These may not apply today ... it has been a while since I read the NCAA Rules.
