Let's look at another way.This whole thread was about whether it is legal to bat or throw the ball back inbounds before going OOB and returning to be the first to touch the ball in bounds.Now you are getting into a completely different violation i.e.self-pass is a separate violation than the one we've been discussing.Forget about the OOB line completely and move the sitch.Say A1 has the ball in the front court,messes up a pass and the ball is heading over the center line.A2 then jumps from the front court,grabs the ball with both hands and throws it back into the front court behind him.If A2 then lands in the back court,get turned around,runs back into the front court and somehow manages to be the first to touch the ball,are you really going to call him for a self-pass?This is completely similar to the points now being argued.It's a whole different thread,and I wouldn't call a violation in this case,either.
