I think we all know you mean "five second" count.
(If we all know it, why did I post it).

The administering official on a FT can use the resumption-of-play procedure and CAN place the ball on the floor in the circle and will start a 10-second count- not a 5-second count- if the FTer isn't in the circle. NFHS rules 8-1-2 and 8-4.
