The ruling in the OP was first posted but he NFHS in the on-line interps.
We stated back then that the reason for the ruling was bogus.
If the NFHS feels that a thrower doing this gains an unfair advantage and wants to make this a throw-in violation, that's fine, but don't try to justify it by stating something which everyone knows is untrue. A thrower most certainly does NOT gain inbounds status by merely touching an inbounds player.
