WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WISH) — Legendary Purdue basketball head coach Gene Keady suffered a small stroke last week and is expected to make a full recovery, according to Purdue men’s basketball on X. Keady was taken to the hospital for evaluation, and has now been transferred to a rehab facility. Purdue head coach Matt Painter said that he has not talked to Keady yet, but Purdue’s academic coordinator Todd Foster and director of basketball administration and operations Elliot Bloom have. “Obviously just pulling for him, but they said he’s going to be fine,” Painter said. Keady coached at Purdue from 1980-2005. He won 782 games with the Boilermakers and won six Big Ten regular season championships.
