Hit the whistle immediately in a case like this.

By blowing the whistle, you let the elbowee know that you saw the action and it is being penalized - this can discourage the elbowee from quickly becoming an elbower.

Also (as you pointed out) the coaches know that a T has been called, so they don't have to swear and scream about a T (thus earning themselves one).
