Inbound pass goes to team mate OOB

[just another ref]

B's ball at the spot where it was touched by A2.

I believe the throw in would be at the original spot.

This use to be the case; no longer. It was an unannounced change of a little known rule. This is not a throwin violation, it's an OOB violation on the receiver of the pass.

Well, sort of. It was a shortlived rule. It was always at the spot of A2, then a case play came about that made it a throwin violation and put it at the spot of the throw in. But that didn't make sense if B2 was the one to have touched the ball and it only lasted just 1-2 years before it was reversed to what it had been forever.

I was thinking it was a slight editorial change in the rules and penalties. I do remember the change came shortly after someone in here (Nevada?) posted the rule/case. No one here knew of the original change, but we were all over it when they changed it back.

Yep, here are the relevant threads in chronological order.


Nov 2006: Where is the Throw-in?

March 2007: Situation: Where to inbounds the ball

Nov 2007: Throw-in violation or OOB violation?

No time taken off of clock, right?

I disagree. The touching itself was legal. The position of the player was not. The game clock should start and stop very quickly.

I agree (if he's disagreeing with Nevada).

The violation first is that he was out of bounds. The touching of the ball would happen at the same time while he's still out of bounds. I wouldn't take any time off the clock. Would be a good question to bring up with my buddies when we go out after our games tomorrow.

And, if the clock does not start, how much time do you take off? Do you have an official's count, or some other definite knowledge, to back up how much time is deducted?

Conversely, you're watching the clock while your partner calls this violation, and you see the clock start, but not stop for a few seconds after, how much time do you put back on? Iow, at what time did the violation occur after the clock (properly?) started? Again, is there definite knowledge?
