The kid can flat-out fill it. Don't know if he's big enough to play SG in college, but he can score. A lot.

Had no idea SMU was on his list. I'd love to see him end up at the Hilltop.

We played a lot with two small guards last year in McCoy and Williams. If this guy can really score, hopefully as a three-point shooter, maybe he'd be good addition.

Is SMU the only school who has offered that hasn't been to the NCAA tournament in over 15 years? I am not sure about Drake...........

Drake made the tournament in '08, and lost in heart-breaking fashion to WKU on a buzzer beater.

Crosstown rival Irving has a very good player considering us.April, 2009:

From ESPN: Henry has good vision and can uses his size to spot open teammates and see over the defense when defended by smaller guards. He has to continue to add strength to his frame in preparation for the next level. Henry can defend multiple positions on the floor, which really increase his value. He does a good job of staying in front of opposing ball-handlers and using his size to bother smaller guards. Henry also has enough quickness to get to the rim and adding more strength will make him a better finisher. Though he will hit jumpers, he needs to increase his consistency from the perimeter. He does a good job of competing and maintaining an even keel on the floor.

A 6-3 small forward? Has to be viewed as a shooting guard, at least.
