Ex-WSU basketball coach Underhill passes away

((Excerpt))

Even in his final fading days — his very last hours — Ralph Underhill was still coaching.

After undergoing a long-awaited kidney transplant three weeks ago at Cincinnati’s Christ Hospital, Wright State’s Hall of Fame basketball coach had a couple of days of improvement before his condition suddenly deteriorated.

Internal bleeding forced doctors to temporarily put him into a medically-induced coma. Then came pneumonia, a blood virus, a blood clot in his already partially-amputated left leg and a stroke.
