Over and Back Call NCAA

As we all know it is legal to change inbounders during a throw in after a basket.

The player inbounding throws the ball toward the other end line. The kid who is inbounds is supposed to be there to catch it (a "delay", the pass goes before the player is there) and then he is supposed to throw a bomb or something down the side line.

Problem is both times the inbounder threw the ball high, so the kid had to jump to catch it. The timing has to be right, and the play was just blown.

Thanks.

I know that if this happened to a team I was coaching, I'd start to wonder about the brain power of the kids on my team. (But that's probably only because I read the rules)
