OK, so if he gets pushed out at the sideline, it's free kick OOB. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that K1 leaps into the air about 5 yards inbounds from the sideline. R1 catches K1 before he touches the ground and carries him out of bounds. Whaddyagot?

I still go with theisey and Bob M. and the definition of recovery. The only way he recovers the ball is if he comes down inbounds and there's no allowance in the rule for being carried or pushed out. There's no forward progress because he's not in possession. He has to contact the ground. I say you still have a free kick OOB.
