Now,serious question! Is there anything in the book that you know of that says if you have a double or simultaneous foul during a jump ball,the original two jumpers have to re-jump,two new jumpers can now be designated,or the fouling players will jump?
Well, no. However, drawing conlusions from similar situations and common sense...

On a double foul, I'd go with making the two foulers jump it which is analogous to having A2 and B2 jump if they created a held ball before either them establishes the arrow.

On the simultaneous, it gets a little tricker since there are at least 3 players and probably 4 involved in the fouls. Since you can't have 4 jumpers, my previous logic breaks down. I think there could be several viable solutions...I'd probably go either with making the two foulers jump or a re-jump.

Of course, if this ever actually happens.....
