Is A2 anywhere near the ball?

Is A2 making any effort to get the ball?

A new throw-in and count is a hell of a lot less unfair than a delay warning and/or T to team B, now isn't it?

This is a screwed up scenario...clearly team A is confused, team B doesn't know what is happening and may do something that will get them a T, not because of a purposeful act but because of team A screwing up their throw-in.

Since we are dealing what ifs, what are you calling if A1 sets the ball down, moves inbounds, A2-5 doesn't move to pick up the ball, team B doesn't reach across to touch the ball and A1 goes back OOB to throw it in?
