To be legally out of bounds, you need to have one foot on the floor out of bounds. The other foot can dangle over the inbounds area. The rule revision only clarified what we are to do if the player never does go out of bounds before throwing the ball in. We had a vigerous debate on the of these boards and we never got anywhere. I think we had three posible ways of doing it. Some committee member saw it and we can be greatful to him for bringing it up last spring and getting a settled answer on what to do in the situation.
