How do you know he's being a jerk? How do you know he's not trying to work on the press-breaker? I don't think you can give an unsportsmanlike T for this. I also think you have to be very careful about threatening the forfeit. You better know that he's not using it to teach. If the coach is using the excess TO's for a legitimate purpose, I would just grant them and give the T. I had a game last year in which the coach asked for a TO, even after I reminded him that it was excessive. But it never crossed my mind to tell him the next one would be a forfeit. He really just wanted a TO.
I just think it's a fine line.
