Georgetown said in a statement Sunday the 74-year-old Hall of Famer who led the Hoyas to the 1984 national title had corrective surgery for a benign twisted intestine. The school adds that Thompson is ''unfortunately unable to travel extensively for the next few weeks. Otherwise, he would be in his favorite spot on the sidelines for March Madness.''
