A good read.
:
That last part lands hard. The best college basketball story of March is, arguably, the story no one will hear about most of March. The St. Thomas Tommies, basically kicked out of Division III six years ago, bold enough to make a first-of-its-kind leap to Division I, driven by a local who quotes Aristotle and Kant, good enough to earn a bid to the NCAA Tournament … well, they can’t play in the NCAA Tournament. Not until 2026, per the conditions of their transition.
Cinderella, without a slipper.
Which is not the same as the end of the story.
