UTEP's coach Rodney Terry back at work after health scare

UTEP men's basketball coach Rodney Terry is back to full health, or close to it, after his health scare last week that had him in a Miami hospital in critical condition with anaphylactic shock.

But Terry said at Monday's regularly scheduled press conference that he has a new perspective on his job and life.

"You're only going to be as good as your health," said Terry, who will be on the bench Thursday when UTEP hosts Southern Miss. "Taking care of your body and taking care of your health is a premium. You value things a lot more, you lean on your faith a lot more.
