TO Request - NCAA - Falling Out of Bounds
 
Cinn/Louisville game today. UC has no TOs left.

UC player had control of the ball, both feet on the ground, and started to fall out of bounds. With both feet still on the floor he requested a TO and then fell OOB. Official ruled him OOB.

I think there's a NCAA rule regarding not being able to call a TO while heading OOB but I wasn't sure if that was only if the player was airborne or not.

Should it have been granted?

Yes. The relevant rule is:

5-15.1. No timeouts shall be granted:
c. To a player or coach when an airborne player’s momentum is carrying him out of bounds or into the backcourt.

But in the OP the player had his feet on the floor... not airborne.

He said "yes" it should have been granted.
