You are correct in your understanding of that situation. But it is ONLY for men's NCAA that this is true. For women NCAA and high school, if an airborn shooter fouls before landing back on tera firma, whether or not he/she has released the ball before contact, it is a player control foul and no free throws. Personally, I'm praying that some day the men's rules committee makes this rule consistent with the women's and HS systems.
