Now, the bigger question is where does the ball get put into play. While the most fair 'do-over' strategy may be to have the team inbound at the original spot, I think we have to say
that the ball is dead at the spot where the horn/whistle sounded, and the ball must be inbounded closest to that spot. [/B][/QUOTE]Disagree. There's no rules basis that says the ball must be inbounded closest to the spot where the horn sounded. What you're proposing is only
part of a 'do-over', not a 'do-over', and you're also penalizing the defense for the timer's error by giving the offense a more advantageous throw-in spot.
