wow. interesting situation. with the ability to think on his/her feet like that, the kid is going places.
to answer your question, how about looking at NFHS 9-2-10:
No player shall: Be out of bounds when he/she touches or is touched by the ball after it has been released on a throw-in pass.
arguably, the thrower had "released the ball," and he/she was clearly "out of bounds when he/she touch(ed) the ball." so you could have a violation independent of the potential 5 second count.
any other thoughts out there? what a weird play.
