Most have said that Blue has the ball, so the arrow should point to Red. Evaluator says that Red caused the ball to go out, thus they had control, set the arrow to Blue.

What's the correct call?
The evaluator is wrong, or s/he saw red control the ball before it went out of bounds. The arrow is set when a team controls the ball, or it's at the disposal of the inbounder (or, in the rare case, at the disposal of the free-thrower following a common foul).
