I would not under any definition consider the defensive player that was trying to get the ball a primary defender. Before the white player possess the ball, neither team can be considered offense or defense. When the white player does gain possession and become and offensive player, the opponent is clearly behind him. It would be a stretch to consider him a primary defender.

Thank you for your help with this ruling.
I've come to the conclusion that this rule needs better definition by the NCAA. The officials do not have clear enough parameters to use in such situations.
I would like to see the NCAA limit this to situations in which the offensive player does not dribble or the rebounder gains possession with at least one foot in the FT lane. Under those circumstances the NCAA could state that the RA does not apply.
