Kentucky women’s basketball coach Matthew Mitchell is recovering from surgery to remove a subdural hematoma (blood on brain).

Here are a few more details from WKYT:

Matthew’s wife Jenna posted on Facebook and said that blood was found on his brain and that he needed surgery. She said that about four months ago, he fell and suffered a concussion. Two weeks ago, she said he went to the hospital with a faint, but persistent headache and that’s when they discovered the blood on his brain.

Jenna said on Facebook that the surgery went well and that he is on the mend.
