I'm pretty sure you're a little off on that, but I can't say that with 100% confidence. By that logic, there could be a string of guys holding hands, and they'd call the ball OOB at midfield.
You're definitely correct that a player OOB touching the BALL is considered to be out, but I've never heard that an OOB player touching an in-bounds player makes the in-bounds player OOB.
