Kicked ball on inbound throw in

[Damian]

Question about time running when the inbound throw in ends with a kicked ball. This will pertain to the correctable error time limit.

A1 is fouled and should have been merited a 1+1 free throw. Instead was given the ball out of bounds. On the inbounds pass, the ball is kicked before being legally touched inbounds and a violation occurs.

NFHS rules says the inbound pass ends when the ball is touched by a player. (It doesn't say legally touched). It also says that a kicked ball violation makes the ball dead when the violation occurs.

So, if the clock operator started the clock and stopped it immediately, does this constitute "proper time" running off the clock.

To finish the scenario, after the kicked ball, the official places the ball at the disposal of the thrower, then is notified that he should have received the free throws.

By rule, is it too late or not?
