The FED has mentioned numerous times in POE's that "tagging" or "measuring up" by a defender should be called a foul every time. In real life......

From the 2002-03 rulebook:
POE #4A: "The measuring up of an opponent(tagging) is hand-checking, is not permitted, and is a FOUL." The word "FOUL" was emphasized in capital letters in the POE.
