Harry began his coaching career at Prairie View A&M University in 1919 and then coached at Langston University in Oklahoma in 1922 before taking over at Paul Quinn College in 1923 when his brother Fred left Paul Quinn for Wiley College.

He left Tennessee State in 1929 to join his brother Fred's staff at Wiley College and head up that college's biology department.〔''The Chicago Defender'' "Harry Long Joins Wiley Grid Staff" 13 July 1929 page 9〕
On December 8, 1945, as the Wiley Wildcats were playing Florida A&M in the Orange Blossom Classic in Tampa, Florida for the black college football national championship Long, who was still an assistant coach on his brother's staff, suffered a fatal heart attack on the sidelines during the first quarter of the game and died. The Wildcats still went on to defeat Florida A&M by a score of 32–6 and won the national title for 1945.〔''The Chicago Defender'' "Wiley Coach Drops Dead in Football Classic" 15 December 1945 page 1 & 5〕
