I thought NCAA rules were different. No such thing as Airborne shooter. Once the ball is out of the hands, then the player is considered just another player.
Thus A1 drives to the basket. Jumps and releases the try. Crashes into B1 before returning to the floor. Ball goes in the basket.
High school rule: NO BASKET. No Free Throws
NCAA rule: Count the basket. Shoot Free Throws if in the bonus. No?

NCAA Men's is the only level that does not have an airborne shooter rule. That is more related to PC fouls and whether the basket counts. That does not apply to fouling a shooter before they reach the floor. If an airborne player has shot a ball and is fouled, the rules are the same. The NCAA just makes a distinction as to whether that "airborne shooter" can commit a PC foul. If the "airborne shooter" commits a foul, then you can shoot bonus FTs and count the basket.
