What I mean is this: if a pass between teammates OOB is allowed, and the definition of a pass does not include handing it off, then a handoff between teammates would not be legal.
My only problem with this logic is that we would certainly permit a handoff inbounds between teammates, therefore it seems we should permit it while out-of-bounds.
Perhaps I'm trying to be too literal with the definition of a pass. And I always get inquisitive when definitions seem fuzzy.

In general, if it's not prohibited it's legal.
The only reason to worry about a handoff here would be that you have an OOB player touching the ball. But since it's a throw-in, he's allowed to touch the ball. So there's just no grounds,
AFAIK, for disallowing a handoff.
