Ignorance, Or Historical Myth ???

100% correct, but I've observed very competent, very veteran, officials handling this like a throwin that goes untouched out of bounds, and thus, incorrectly put the ball back in play at the original throwin spot. There may have been a rule, or interpretation, from thirty-five years ago, that drives this myth.
Hey Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.: Is this worth a trip up to your attic library?
