Question What do you mean?

How can you make this statement? The only error in his statement is the lack of a space between action and less, which hardly changes the meaning of the rule. Your statement is only correct if you mean that the rule does not merely indicate this, it explicity states that fact. While 10-5 gives 4 examples and none include this action, if both teams sat down and refused to touch the ball, it seems that 10-5 could easily be invoked.

As for kicking OOB, since the ref is part of the floor and the ball was last touched by the shooting team, it seems that ball would go to B rather than to the AP arrow
