If B1 kicks the ball, A1 can still run the end line.

If B1 is touching the OOB line when he deflects the ball, A1 can still run the end line.

If B1 deflects the ball and it then goes OOB, it's a spot throw.
Just wondering...if B1 kicked the ball in Team A's FC after a long pass, wouldn't the ball be taken OOB at the spot closest to the violation, and not a end line throw in?

Also...if B1 was touching the OOB line in A's FC, again after a long pass, wouldn't the ball be taken OOB at the spot B1 was touching OOB, and not a end line throw in?

I think a Coach would much rather have the ball in his front court as opposed to being able to run the end line...of course, I know, it doesn't matter what the Coach would rather have...it's what the rules state that matters.
