If he is coaching and not addressing you, I would recommend that you remind him that he is seatbelted before you T him, regardless of what may have passed between you previously. If he gives you any more flack about it, you T him. If he ignores your gentle reminder, you T him. But try not to T a guy for coaching without a warning.
Also, I would be looking at whether he is standing, then remembering and sitting, or just takes his feet and never sits back down. The latter could get one more gentle warning, then a T. The former may warrant a little selective vision - he is not used to being seatbelted and is making an effort to comply. In an intense game, we may lose ourselves for a moment - if we are doing that and coaching (rather than calling you out), why would you want to whack?
