Dallas Shirly use to say: "Never say never and never say always." But just because a defender makes contact with the ball first does not mean that he can make contact with the ball handler after that. That is an absurd statement. I can see players saying: "You cannot call a foul on me, I made contact with the ball first; that allows me to play recklessly and out of control.
