First of all, this seems like a pretty stupid play to me. I don't see how it could be run successfully more than once. I mean, if I am the defender, it seems pretty easy to pick this pass of, but maybe I just don't understand your description exactly. If I do, you can't T the kid. He is making an inbounds play, by rule. It sounds like it would be very similar to a situation in which he jumps out of bounds to save the ball, and then passes it. Jumping to save the ball creates an advantage, i.e. the opposition isn't willing to do that. We don't T them up for that. I agree with the others that the POE is for the avoiding of screens and even the avoiding of defenses. In this case, the player is legally in bounds when he makes the play. Let it go.
Kudos to JR for the "pray tell." I love some good old Shakespearian verbiage every once in a while
