Your partner is wrong. The term "crack back" block is mainly an NFL term to clarify what kind of contact a player cannot do (block below the waist) from basically a receiver position. I am not sure the term "crack back" is even used in the NF rulebook (I cannot speak for NCAA rules). You can block anyone on the field with as much contact if you do so legally (block below the waist, block in the back, butt blocking are examples of illegal blocks).

Peace
