Which Foot Where and When?

If your situation said "one foot in the backcourt THEN one foot in the frontcourt", then NO. Because . . .

If it said "one foot in the frontcourt THEN one foot in the backcourt," then YES. Because . . .

If it said "one foot in the backcourt and one in the frontcourt SIMULTANEOUSLY," then NO. Because . . .

(This all assumes the pass recipient was in the frontcourt before jumping and landing on his feet, which is, I think, where you're coming from. If not, then it's a whole different kettle of fish. If fish are really ever found in kettles.)

. . . of Rule 9-9 and 4-4-1,2 and related Casebook citations. Check those out and see if you'd agree.
