Would you ignore the "new information" transmitted by B4 and proceed as you first called it--giving the ball to team B? Or would you reverse your call, respect the honesty of B4, and give the ball to team A?
For the record in our game, we stuck with the original OOB call and gave the ball to team B.

I actually had this in a college game this season. I didn't change my call though.
