			I call it every time I see it.  He's doing it because he's never been called for it, or rarely anyway.
 Now, nothing says a player can't square up and chin the ball as he pivots.  I look at whether his elbows move faster than his waist; it's a rule of thumb, as well as his face to guage his intent.
 
 It's a dangerous play and should be called.  They downgraded this from a tech so we'd call it more.  From the sounds of your situation, calling it the first time would have prevented him from doing it again; and it would have kept the opponents off your back (if I was the coach, I'd have wondered why you weren't calling it.)
 
 One thing I hate, though, when I call it the offender's coach invariably asks me to "get them off of him."
