Have had a similar discussion before with others, if A2 runs OOB and then comes back in, and AFTER he is back in bounds and established, A1 throws the pass is that a violation? Rule says, " A player who has stepped out of bounds under his own volition and then becomes the first player to touch the ball after returning to the playing court has committed a violation." If the ball is still in A1's hand, then A1 is the first to touch the ball by virtue of the fact that it's still in his hand. So is this a legal play? By the letter of the rule, I think yes, but by the spirit of the rule, I'd say no. Last edited by frezer11; Tue Feb 02, 2016 at 12:28am. |

In other words, if A1 is holding the ball in bounds and A2 steps out of bounds on his own and returns to the court, someone else must touch the ball before A2. So A1 can pass to A3 and then to A2, but if the pass goes from A1 to A2 it is a violation. |

of bounds. Given the two choices on the menu, I think the player and his coach would opt for the violation.

It doesn't create doubt among college officials. They understand what the rule is telling them to do.

The rule is clear enough -- and it's a call that happens in my NCAAW games a couple of times a year. I did notice that L did not use the new NCAAM "delayed violation" mechanic on this. |

The rule is not clear and no one would come up with the interpretation that the NCAA uses unless someone told them it was that. That said the interpretation is very clear and first to touch means next. They should change the rule.

Rule has always been clear to me. I don't even know if I've ever read the case play.

I hope you are asking that rhetorically.

Yes, this rule is badly worded. It should say something else. But what else? Either of the suggested wordings create bad interpretation opportunities.
Perhaps it should say "next to receive a pass".
