We have a couple of coaches that teach their players to grab the offensive player's jersey to prevent them from getting open.
Last year, one team was doing it all game. I talked to the refs about it, but they couldn't catch them doing it (I know it can be hard to see - especially in the post where the players are so close together.)
I told my players to knock their defender's hands off, and my center got nailed with two flagrants for it.
What would be a legal way to get a defender who is grabbing the jersey off?

This could be and is in my opinion an intentional foul. There is no ligitimate play for the ball and of course if its off the ball, its a no brainer.
