I would think they would want to decline the penalty since by accepting it A would get one last shot at the endzone before halftime. This is a great example of the officials needing to know all the options. Definitely not a case where you ask B "you want the 5 yards don't ya'"

I agree. If I'm B's coach, I'll take my medicine on the 2nd half kickoff, not give A another shot at the endzone from my 15.
And despite what the book says, this is the coach's decision, not some 15-17 year old kid's. Be sure that the wing gets the info to the coach so he can signal his kid what he wants done.
