1) Are you talking about LGP as opposed to having a legal position on the playing court? They're completely different concepts, which I'm sure that you know. Under NCAA rules, lying down isn't a legal position on the playing court. Under FED rules, it was and maybe still is, but the applicable case play has been removed.
2) Rule 4-23-3(b) says that the defender is not not required to continue facing the opponent.
