(numbers added above)

it applies to "going out on the player's own volition" so it does NOT apply to your second example.

By rule it applies to your first, but in the real word it might not (it certainly would if both feet were out of bounds)

your third example would be a T.

Other that the "first to touch the ball" addition in NCAA rules, the concept is the same.
