Now I'm confused with the over the back discussion. I probably sound like an idiot, but is this not a foul? What am I missing here?

Displacing / holding, etc. are fouls.
Jumping higher than the player in front of you and grabbing the ball w/out displacing that player is NOT a foul.

So is there any penalty for these actions?

Only in the minds of coaches, fans, and announcers on TV.
Behind and over IS NOTHING. Going through the player in front, holding down the player in front, or hitting a player's arms who is in front and reaching for the ball vertically are fouls.
Over the back does not exist.
FYI reaching is not a foul either.
