By definition, a dribble starts when the ball is pushed to the floor....the moment it leaves the dribbler's hand(s), not at some point later. Thus, when the ball hits the floor, it is "during a dribble" that started with backcourt status. Thus, by rule, the ball location is still in the BC and does not obtain FC status when the ball hits the floor in the FC.
