9-3-2 says "No player shall be out of bounds when he/she touches or is touched by the ball after it has been released on a throw-in pass."

By touching the flag, B1 is considered out of bounds and touching the ball after the throw-in.

9-3 penalty puts the ball in that case at the designated OOB spot nearest the violation, which would be the OOB spot closest to the flag and the player.

IF B1 is touching the flag and is considered OOB then why would the designated spot not be where the thrower was originally?

Where do you put the ball for any OOB violation?

There's a difference between throwing the ball out-of-bounds untouched and throwing a ball that touches a player who is out of bounds

Bingo. Give that man a cigar.
