from NCAA online rules...
Art. 5. A defensive player shall be permitted to secure control of the ball
while both feet are off the playing court and land with one or both feet in
the back court.
A.R. 21. B1 (a) secures possession of a rebound from Team As basket or (b) has the ball
for a throw-in under Team As basket. B1 is in the front court of Team A (in other words,
the back court of Team B). B1 attempts a long pass down the playing court to teammate
B2. A2, standing in Team As front court close to the division line, leaps and intercepts a
pass by B1, then lands in the back court of Team A with player control. RULING: In both
(a) and (b), no violation has occurred. These are exceptions to the back-court rule. (See
Rule 9-11.6.)
