Now I'm confused. Recently someone here on the board mentioned that there is no such foul as "over the back." I see this called in virtually every game. What should my response be to offcials who make this call?
Thanks!

coachgrd,
I think everyone on the board agrees that there is no "over the back" foul. This term should be reserved for use by fans and parents of 4th graders.
Some officials may call a foul with
no contact when the player "behind" reaches into the vertical space of an opponent and steals a rebound. To that official you could ask : "Where was the contact?"
As you know, if there is no contact, then there is no foul.
