Good thread first of all. Secondly if you are having trouble with this don't sweat it at all and don't make it too big of a deal. As soon as you see a jump stop coming and it happens look at the player's feet. There is going to be a little delay in you looking down so if the foot is in the air I would just give the benefit of the doubt of the player being in the air when he/she gathered the ball. In your delayed look you see the player's foot on the floor I would determine the ball is gathered before his foot left the ground.

Also I know it looks weird and I miss it as much as anbody, but upon the gather of the ball after the player has left the ground, he may pivot and in the case of a player leading with one foot right after the other and in advance of the other it is not a walk but it looks like a walk especially if you don't know the rules.
