“Pat has played a major role in rebuilding the KU football program,” coach Mark Mangino said. “We’re excited for him as he starts his new challenge. He’ll still have a big impact on our program in this new position.”

Henderson played with the Jayhawks from 1972-74. He began working as a coach for Kansas in 2002 as part of Mangino’s original staff after serving as special teams coordinator for Southern Methodist University. He has also coached at Arizona State, Purdue, Texas Christian and Tulsa.

Henderson has guided the careers of Clark Green and John Randle during his time as assistant coach. A replacement has not been named.
