I think we all need to remember the spirit and intent of the rules.
If B2 regains control, then play on (no advantage/disadvantage). If not, then blow the whistle and give the ball to B out of bounds.
Since it was an "honest" mistake made by the coach, then why penalise them with a Techincal foul?

You say to give B the ball OOB if B2 doesn't "recover." That would actually put B at a disadvantage - where originally team B had a fast break, team A now has a chance to set up on defense. Final answer - the "T" needs to be called.
