Do you have some sort of reference for that?

It doesn't take severe contact to knock someone to the ground when they are not expecting to be hit.

If they're knocked to the ground, IMO that's severe.

thanks for your feedback ! After I read your comments - the correct enforcement makes sense to me.

so no matter what order those 2 fouls occured, is it correct that you will enforce the block in the back first? nfhs rules.

Yes, because the BIB is a live ball foul. Dead ball fouls are enforced after live ball fouls.
