CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Former Illinois and New Mexico State basketball coach Lou Henson has been released from a Texas hospital and is scheduled to begin chemotherapy treatments. Henson's wife, Mary, told The News-Gazette in Champaign that the 83-year-old retired coach is staying with family in Houston.

Henson has dealt with both non-Hodgkins lymphoma and encephalitis over the past 12 years.

Henson is the winningest coach in the history of both schools and will be inducted into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame this November.
