I agree with you Juggling. The two actions have entirely different meanings. "I hear you" is simply an acknowledgment that you've taken note of what the coach said (even if you promptly forget about it). It is not an instruction to the coach to stop....maybe an implied suggestion but nothing more. "That's enough coach" is a direct and clear instruction for the coach to cease whatever they're doing. I don't think I'd ever T a coach for saying something after "I hear you" unless what they say warrants the T all on its own.
