SAN ANTONIO — Loyola-Chicago coach Porter Moser and his players were amused at the attention Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt received at Friday's Final Four news conference prior to the Ramblers' team news conference.
"Just walking by, you would've thought she was one of us, one of the players the way she was being interviewed," senior guard Donte Ingram said at a news conference of around 40-50 reporters.
Moser later corrected his player. "It looked like Tom Brady at the Super Bowl," he quipped.
