Reporter: So Coach how does it feel to be back in the Bulldog Nation
Hughes: it’s great I had a nice break from football.
Reporter: break???? Weren’t you coaching at Jackson State.
Hughes: no I was assigned there on medical leave to help with their Flag football program designed to teach the mentally challenged the skills sets of team work and motivation.
Reporter: Coach wait what?
Hughes: you heard me. So what had happened was I needed a medical leave because I had some prostate problems so I went up to Jackson State for treatment and the doctors told me that JSU had a flag football team that had a number of mentally challenged kids who used football as therapy. I found it relaxing until they turned on me.
Reporter: this is a similar story that former coach with a speech impediment said.
Coach Jackson: wait hole on ghat dammit....fust I said that I’m not goin go to go to Texas but when we not goin go we not goin go on vacation.
Reporter: what in the hell?
Hughes: you see why I left. I got some coaching to do.
