America's newest celebrity, thanks to the NCAA tournament, is Sister Jean.

The 98-year-old chaplain for the Loyola-Chicago basketball team, Jean Dolores-Schmidt has been everywhere. Dozens of cut-away shots during the games, "Good Morning America" and countless other interviews.

Heck, she even has her own bobble head and sneakers in the works.

Loyola-Chicago, the surprise team of the Final Four, takes on Michigan on Saturday (6:09 p.m., TBS). And while John Beilein is working on a defensive game plan for the Ramblers, one U-M support has Sister Jean covered.
