Pitino in NCAA Tournament, Kentucky out after chaotic season

Rick Pitino is in the NCAA Tournament and Kentucky is not. It’s been that kind of season in college basketball. A year after the NCAA Tournament was canceled by COVID-19, the 2021 bracket included Pitino’s Iona Gaels and no Big Blue Nation following a season of stops, starts and cancelations. This year’s bracket also could include the return of Sister Jean. The 101-year-old Loyola Chicago chaplain is hoping to get clearance to join the Ramblers in Indianapolis.
