Regardless, In NCAA-m, you don't do either. You just strictly enforce the boundary plane provisions.
You don't move the thrower anywhere since they can be as far away from the line as they like. I tell them they "may" move up to the designated line but I don't tell them to move. I do move the defender ball and tell them they can't cross the designated line until the ball crosses it.
