You don't have illegal participation?

I would say that it is not IP. It would be IP if the A player goes OOB and returns, but jumping in the air does not constitute coming back in bounds. At the same time, the ball is not dead, since the A player is not OOB either. In the air, he is neither OOB nor in bounds (I suppose he is in limbo), since a player does not need to "reestablish" himself to no longer be OOB.

I have last year's rulebook on me, so I hope these rule references are correct: 2-1-3, 2-28-1, and 9-6-1.
