Men's Final Four is all bluebloods this year

This morning's sports section back page in Chicago reflects all-blueblood Final FourChicago Sun-Times

The NCAA Tournament is set up for "one of the bluebloodiest men’s Final Fours" ever: Duke, North Carolina, Kansas and Villanova. The programs headed to New Orleans have a "combined 17 NCAA tournament championships," and this is the first time "every Final Four program came in having already won at least three national titles." One semifinal will feature the "first Duke-North Carolina NCAA tournament meeting in the annals of that unsurpassed rivalry." They also are meeting with the retiring coach Mike Krzyzewski’s "career on the line" (SI.com, 3/27).

This "could be considered one of the greatest Final Four lineups." The 60 combined Final Four appearances "betters the previous record of 50" set in the '08 Final Four that featured North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas and Memphis (USA TODAY, 3/28).
