I think you may be giving a lot of people waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy too much credit. Most coaches/players/fans are extremely biased, which is totally expected and not a bad thing. They're rooting for their team, and want every call to go their way. So if they see 100 rebounds-from-behind and no foul call, their conclusion is likely NOT going to be, "Hmmm, there must be no such thing as 'over the back' ". Rather, they'll probably be thinking, "We just screwed by that ref 100 times in a row!"
Just my opinion, of course.
