Coach touches ball
HS Scrimmage (I am 'C' opposite table):
Gold steals ball in paint and throws outlet pass down the middle of court. Just past half-court Blue tips ball and ball heads towards Gold bench. Blue player is chasing after ball. Ball bounces and crosses sideline in the mid-air. Gold coach catches ball after it has clearly crossed over sideline.
Normal OOB call or should Gold coach/team be penalized?
BTW, don't know that it matters, but I have no doubt in my mind that he grabbed the ball on-purpose to prevent any chance of Blue saving the ball. (Gold team is defending state champions and Gold coach is a former CBA player; very basketball savvy)
