I guess my question is have any of you made that call. To me it's just holding?

Well your opinion has not been in line with that of the NFHS since 2000-01 when the Fed wrote the following in a POE on intentional fouls:
An intentional foul has occurred when a team has obviously committed a foul, late in the game, to stop the clock and force the opponent into a throw-in or free throw situation. Acts that must be deemed intentional include:
- grabbing a player from behind
- wrapping the arms around a player
- grabbing a player away from the ball
- grabbing or shoving a player from behind when an easy basket may be made
- excessive contact on a player attempting a shot
- grabbing/holding a player by the jersey in order to impede their progress
