About Henry J. McGlew

  • Henry J.
  • "Fuzzy" McGlew of Chelsea, Massachusetts was a quarterback and head coach of the Notre Dame college football program. In his two years as a starting quarterback from 1901 to 1902, the team achieved a combined record of 14–3–2.
  • His best game came against the American College of Medicine and Surgery in 1902, when he made runs of 80, 65 and 40 yards and scored one touchdown.
  • In 1903, he moved to left end, and helped the team to achieve their first undefeated season.
  • McGlew never once fumbled the ball during his playing career. McGlew was a teammate of College Football Hall of Famer Red Salmon, and succeeded him as head coach of the Irish in 1905.
  • His lone season as coach included a record-setting 142–0 victory over American Medical, but the team finished a disappointing 5–4, and McGlew retired from the coaching ranks.
