Homer Drew (and wife) diagnosed with cancer

[Rhode Irish]

Homer Drew, Valpo coach/program architect, and his wife were both recently diagnosed with cancer. Here is the AP story.

There are a few interesting tidbits in the story, but this one jumped out as interesting for this board:

Drew coached in more than 1,000 games, winning more than 640 in 32 seasons. He often said he would only leave Valpo for two other jobs -- Notre Dame or Saint Louis.
