His coaching record at Howard Payne was 5 wins, 7 losses, and 3 ties. As of the conclusion of the 2007 season, this ranks him 18th at Howard Payne in total wins and tenth at Howard Payne in winning percentage (0.433). [1]
[edit] Mizzou
Henry was head coach of the University of Missouri from 1923 to 1931. During his tenure, he compiled a 40-28-9(.578) record. Taking away his cellar-dweller years in 1923, 1930, and 1931, where he went 2-3-3, 2-5-2, and 2-8-0 respectively, he could be considered one of the best coaches in Big Twelve history. He holds another distinction, as being one of two coaches to play a football game on Christmas. On December 25, 1924, USC defeated Missouri 20-7.[2]
[edit] Other schools
Henry also coached at the University of Kansas, University of New Mexico, and the College of Emporia.
[edit] Personal life
He is the grandfather of collegiate track and field coach Pat Henry.[3]
