Sister Jean is quickly learning that with attention comes the haters. The 98-year-old team chaplain of Loyola-Chicago has become America’s sweetheart during the Cinderella team’s run through the 2018 NCAA Tournament, but leading up to their Final Four matchup against Michigan she has Wolverines fans feeling spicy.
We first heard Jalen Rose’s 100-year-old grandma throwing shade at Sister Jean, and now a Michigan bank is joining in on the trend.
A bank sponsored a sign that took a shot at Sister Jean with a clever pun, referencing the school’s fight song.
A for effort, F for making fun of a nun.
Here’s the sign:
