It works perfectly on those players who are standing at the brink of earning themselves a T and almost always causes them to step back and tone it down. Usually the coach will react to it also - I think the "teacher look" and the "mother look" are universally understood.

Precisely, it's not a look you initiate but a reaction to a previous action.

I do it many a time.
