Can someone please give an exact rules interp of who is correct. I would look for it but I can't find my rule book.

B caused the ball to goo OOB. There's no such thing as establishing position OOB.

Try this:

Thrower A1 is OOB to make a throw-in. The throws the ball, B1 deflects it, and it hits A1 who is still OOB. Who caused the ball to go OOB?

A1.
