PHILADELPHIA -- Temple basketball coach John Chaney was hospitalized with pneumonia but was expected to be released Tuesday. The 70-year-old coach was in good condition Monday, the hospital said. Temple officials said later Monday that Chaney is doubtful for Wednesday's at Penn State. The most likely scenario is for Chaney to continue to rest at home once he's released Tuesday, then meet the team in time for Saturday's game against Illinois in Chicago. Chaney was admitted to Temple University Hospital on Sunday after he reported feeling weary at practice. He was diagnosed with a "small case of pneumonia and received intravenous fluids," university spokesman Chet Zukowski said. Temple (0-5) is off to its worst start in the 107-year history of the program. The Owls' latest loss was to crosstown rival Penn, 71-46 on Saturday night. |
