High school rules

After a made goal either team can call a time out. However, the question is at what point after a made field goal can we no longer grant the T.O.? According to 4-5-7d "the ball is at disposal of player when it is available to a player after a goal". Furthermore, according to 7-6-1, a throw in starts when the ball is at the disposal of a player entitled to a throw in. Finally, 4-42-3, a throw in count shall begin when the ball is at the disposal of a player of the team entitled to it. I have always granted a time out up until the time that the player as retreived the ball and positioned themselves for the throw in. However, looking at the rules it appears that granting the TO and starting the in-bound count should occur as soon as a I beleive that the ball is at the disposal a player not when a player has positioned themselves for the throw-in.
