As soon as your airborne player catches the ball, the ball gains FC status since he jumped from the FC. Violation as soon as he lands in the BC. Every time at all levels.

i thought this might be the case. it makes sense. it's just jamison was explaining to the ref that he was in the air, then landed. he wasn't denying he had his foot on the line. then that made me think of the rule that you must establish all 3 things in the frontcourt first. i just wan't sure if you had to have possession of the ball before your feet counted; you don't.
