Coaching career
Since retiring from playing basketball, Henson has turned to coaching. He has been an assistant at Illinois, with the Atlanta Hawks, at South Florida, at UNLV and at Oklahoma.[1] After a successful 2015–16 season with the Oklahoma Sooners to the 2016 Final Four in Houston, Henson was announced to succeed Brooks Thompson as the new head coach for UTSA.
UTSA (2016–2024)
On April 1, 2016, Henson was hired as the head coach at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and assumed his new position after the Sooners' exit from the NCAA tournament the following day. In his first year of coaching, Henson engaged in a major rebuilding effort after succeeding Thompson as head coach. In his first year, UTSA posted a nine-win improvement in the overall record, going to 14–19 and a five-win improvement in Conference USA (C-USA) games to 8–10. In his second season, Henson posted a winning record for the first time since 2011–12, going 20–15 for the season and 11–7 in conference play, and being named the conference coach of the year. The UTSA Roadrunners lost in the quarterfinals of the 2018 C-USA tournament, but secured an invite into the 2018 CIT tournament. After three straight seasons with 20 or more losses, Henson was fired from UTSA on March 14, 2024.[2]
