Receiver out of bounds thread below...
 

I would have thrown my flag at the spot where the A player returned inbounds. Thats the spot where the foul occurred.

Bean bag or hat is dropped at the spot where he went out of bounds.

Penalty flag is dropped at the spot where he returns inbounds.

If it was an incomplete pass the defense could decline the penalty and move to the next down. Or perhaps they might want to accept the penalty to take the offense out of field goal range even though the down would be replayed.

You are giving an unfair advantage to A if you ignore this.

Why? Please tell me what purpose this serves?

NCAA - not a flag unless the offensive player who stepped out is first to touch the forward pass. Therefore, it makes sense to beanbag it on Saturday (CCA mechanic). So some feel the need to beanbag it on Friday also, even though we agree it is a flag in NF rules. Why use both. I won't.
