We have discussed this topic several times in our Association meetings and we have all agreed to give the inbounding time the right to run the baseline when team b deflects the ball oob on the endline.

The NFHS rulebook is very plain in identifying a ball deflected oob as a violation. If the ball went oob on the sideline it would be a designated spot throw-in. If the ball goes oob on the endline, team A still gets the baseline. It may not seem fair, but that is the rule.
It seems fair, but what you are doing is NOT the rule! Team A is allowed to run the endline when team B either violates or commits a foul (before the bonus) before the throw-in ends. If B2 taps the ball out of bounds, the throw-in ends when B2 touches the ball, and the OOB is a separate act.
