Robert Hughes (basketball coach)

Robert Hughes (born May 15, 1928 in Bristow, Oklahoma, United States) is a former high school basketball coach. From 1973 to 2005 he coached at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School in Fort Worth, Texas. He previously coached at I.M. Terrell High School in Fort Worth (an all-black high school) during segregation. After segregation ended and I.M. Terrell was shut down, Mr. Hughes began coaching at Dunbar. Combined, he won five state basketball titles.
