Connections: Jim Kelly's Health Battle

Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly will not have cancer surgery after all; his cancer has spread too far. He’ll undergo radiation and chemo instead. Dr. Matt Miller from URMC joined us to speak generally about the types of treatment, likely outcomes, etc.

Journalist Scott Pitoniak was also here. He’s covered Jim Kelly extensively. Pitoniak and Miller talked about  Jim Kelly the first half hour; then we transitioned to talk about the future of Syracuse and Jim Boeheim after their early NCAA tournament exit.
