But he showed up at the Pacific 12 Conference's men's basketball media day at L.A. Live on Friday, when he revealed his illness, cancer free.
"So that's good news," the 64-year-old said with his trademark dry humor.
Still, it was a gloomy time when he found out.
"Yeah, we didn't have a lot of parties around the house," he said. "It wasn't a real exciting time. I mean, it's scary. It's scary. Anybody that's been through it or had something, you go from being relatively on top of your game to being in charge of everything, to no longer being in charge. It could have gone the other way."
He said the timing of when doctors discovered his illness was extrmely fortunate.
"[The doctor] said, 'Three months ago, we wouldn't have found this. Six months from now, you'd be done,' " Montgomery said.
