Strip ball question

This has come up in a few games and I'm not sure on rulings.

When a player is stripped balled, does the ball bounce from where he was just like a failed catch? And does the blocking player have a chance to pick it up as per is follow up?

Hmm ive always played that the ball is scattered from the square they are pused to, this is what it says in the rulebook anyway, so that is definatly right.

I would then follow up if i wanted to and the roll for the ball scatter, so if it did go to the square you followed up yo then under the current rules you must attempt to catch it.
