On most sideline plays, I am not retreiving, but relaying the ball to the U. This is more than theory.

Why have the BJ chase the ball on incomplete passes? Have the LJ (or HL depending on your area's preference- we run both ball boys off the same sideline, home sideline) get a new ball in to the U. If it is incomplete, the Bj can get the old ball, relay it to the sidelines, all while the ball is getting ready.
