Sorry, your opinion is wrong.

NCAA A.R. 91.

B1 slips to the floor in the free-throw lane. A1 (with his/her back to B1, who is prone) receives a pass, turns and, in his or her attempt to drive to the basket, trips and falls over B1. RULING: Foul on B1, who has taken an illegal defensive position.

P.S. Under NFHS rules why would you ever call a foul on B2 is this case?

Perhaps just like you're ignoring the NCAA rule, he's ignoring the NFHS rule.

Tony:

I didn't say I would ignore the NCAA ruling, I said that I would be hard pressed to enforce it; I would make the call per the ruling but I wouldn't like it one bit.. It is a ruling that cannot be defended by rule and that just makes my very very irritated.

Had this exact play on our state rules exam. Still much discussion going on about this situation.
