Correct, there is no such thing as illegal participation in NCAA rules.
Under NCAA rules, assuming that the Team A player who goes OOB is not forced OOB via contact with an opponent:
During a free kick or scrimmage kick, they may not return inbounds. (5 yard penalty)
During a scrimmage down, a Team A player loses eligibility by going OOB. If he returns inbounds, he remains ineligible to catch a forward pass unless/until that pass is touched by a team B player or an official.
The only restriction on Team B players with regards to OOB is that they cannot be OOB at the snap.
