I read in a previous post where there is no such thing as over the back. Could you please explain, because I sure see it called a lot. Thanx.

JWalker,
Merely reaching over an opponent from behind and attempting to get the ball is not a violation unless there is absolute contact between the players.
If such contact occurs it can be a "push" or "charge", but never an "over-the-back".
There is no such foul defined, and there is no such approved signal as the "Boogey Man" or "Big Ol' Bear" signal.
Thus, there is no "over-the-back" foul.
