Would you call this violation?

Unless I'm seeing this wrong in my head, I wouldn't call this.

I thought it should have been called, but not really a big advantage gained. They were walking the ball up the court.

NFHS 10-3-2: A player shall not: Purposely and/or deceitfully delay returning after legally being out of bounds. PENALTY: (Section 3) Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in.


Adam:

I do not understand why you would not call this TF?

I may or may not depending on the play.

If the player throws the ball in and the play is 20 feet ahead of him and he lazily trots down the sideline (OOB) and eventually comes back in such that he is no part of the play, I'm not calling anything.

On the other hand, if there is a throwin on the endline and the player runs across the endline after throwing the ball in and pops inbounds to receive a return pass for an open shot....getting that.

The case/rule talks about "Purposely and/or deceitfully". If I don't see a purpose or deceit in the player's actions, no T. Lazy or sloppy is not purposeful or deceitful.

THAT'S what I'm picturing, and your reasoning matches my own.

The fact that the official was on the wrong side of the thrower just makes it look worse.

When I was watching, that was my thinking. No deceit. No advantage gained. It just looked really bad. You could say lazy/sloppy.
