Boys varsity game this week. White team down by about ten with a few minutes to go. White team is trying to foul Red team to stop clock. Red team is doing a good job at playing "keep away". White player reaches in and slaps Red player on the arm. As I'm putting some air into the whistle to call a common foul, the White player grabs the jersey of the Red player, who he has already fouled, but Red is about to get by the White player, thus the jersey grab. The sound of my whistle and the jersey grab happen at the same time.

Do I just call the common foul, and ignore the jersey grab?

Do I only call the intentional foul for the jersey grab, and forget about the common foul?

Do I call both the common foul, and the intentional foul?

Two types of answers please, common sense (spirit, intent, advantage, disadvantage) answers, and rule book answers, with citations, please.

I'd just call the common foul. Also a quick word to the White player about the limits of his strategy.
