Let's say the ball is in the half court, a player runs out of bounds on the end line and a violation is called before he/she has a chance to come back in to receive a pass. I know coming back in doesn't matter. I'm curious, how many people have called this in a game? If so, how did the coach accept it since I'm assuming he asked what happened?

What if...
The player that is called for this violation wants to run the baseline later on in the game. Knowing the rule, he/she says, "Hey ref, the defender has a foot on the line" and proceeds to plow right through them as you are watching?

Is the defender standing still?

I maintain that on plays where LGP is not required, a player may be standing on the line and still take a charge.

Help me here, but I'm pretty sure (in college at least) a defender cannot have LGP if they are considered out of bounds.

And, as discussed in extreme depth in another thread I haven't taken the time to search for (but if you're interested you should, as it's quite entertaining), snaqs is making the argument (that I agree with) that LGP isn't required if the defender is standing still...

Definitely no argument from me that the defender doesn't have LGP - just that LGP isn't required.
