I hate to burst everyone's bubble here, but the "T" didn't stand for anything. TAGS writer Everett Greenbaum’s brother worked for a movie titles producer named Saul Bass. On the television show "Mr. Peepers," writers Jim Fritzell and Everett called the football coach Frank T. Whip. That’s where the “T” came from. This was from Neal Brower’s book "The Essential Mayberry," page 326, which is a must for all Mayberry fans.
