In the NCAA book, it's laid out to be a foul on B2. There used to be a specific NFHS case play on this, but it has been removed from the book. The rationale for not calling a foul under FED rules was that every player was allowed a legal spot on the court, and B2 laying on the floor had established his legal spot.
NFHS rule 4-23-1--"Every player is entitled to a spot on the playing court provided such player gets there first without illegally contacting an opponent."
