I think a rule change is in order here to prevent this:
Any player running out of bounds at any time during any play is an ineligible player for the remainder of that play. Period. The game is played in bounds, not in and out.
The dude nailed him with his thigh in the thigh that friggin hurt. And he said it was intentional. Regardless of his location on the field it was intentional by the coach, he has been suspended as a result.

That what makes him a knucklehead, he coulda said he was braceing for impact. He did show a little relative honesty in admitting his act. The problem IMHO is a rule problem in that a player can leave the field and return to play.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
