Digger Phelps, ESPN College Basketball Analyst, Diagnosed With Cancer

Phelps has had surgery and will start follow-up treatment next week near his home in South Bend, Indiana.
In a statement, Phelps said that “he and his family appreciate your thoughts and prayers as he prepares for the 2013-2014 college basketball season.”
Dick Vitale tweeted early this morning that he spoke to Phelps, and there’s some good news.
Digger Phelps told me that his bladder cancer has not spread & early detection was the key - in really good spirits & very optimistic .

Phelps beat prostate cancer in 2010. Here’s hoping for a similar recovery.
