Henry Sees Kansas as Winner
Gwinn Henry, recently chosen athletic director, neatly evaded attempts of his interviewer to draw him out on questions of future policy in a broadcast over WREN Thursday night.
Asked if he had any plans for his course of action after he takes over the reins July 1. Henry replied that he was "ready to ready to say anything about them."
In answer to a question concerning any coaching he might do, the interviewer was informed that the query was "a little out of line." Henry continued to say that he had never seen an interviewer was about enough for one man.
Henry did comment at some length on what he thought it takes to make a winning team. "Teams win games, not so much because of coaches, but because of the men. If a man loves to play, he'll play winning football. If he doesn't love to play, he'll play a tough game," said Henry. "There are plenty of men here who do love to play the game," he concluded. "You can't tell me that Kansas doesn't have them."
