Verbatim Rule 8 Sec 1 Art 1: When a free throw is awarded, the ball shall be placed at the disposal of the free thrower (bounced) by the administering official and the free throw count shall begin. <(Period)

I guess IREF was correct when he said:

There's no need to clarify anything. Casebook play 8.1.1SitA says that that the ball becomes live when it caught by the free thrower. Rule 6-1-2(c) also says that the ball becomes live when it it is at the disposal of the free thrower.

Ergo, "caught" = "disposal".
