Since my boss has imposed a three-week ban on the term "Cinderella," this year's tournament can best be described as the year of the Hickory, as in Gene Hackman's fictional Hickory High squad that won the 1951 Indiana state championship in Hoosiers. Few expected Cornell, Northern Iowa, Washington and Xavier or a Robbie Hummel-less Purdue to make it this far, but we have reached the Sweet 16 and they are still alive while Kansas, Georgetown, Pittsburgh and Villanova are sitting at home. If you want a five-minute, catch-up on the tournament, I suggest SI.com's Seth Davis, who declares St. Mary's Omar Samhan the tournament MVP so far. Samhan's also a pretty funny dude. The one team that's captured my interest is St. Mary's, so much so that it inspired me to find a Mary to lead today's Hot Clicks. I considered Mary Louise Parker, Mary Kate Olson, Mary McCormack and even Mary Lou Retton but none of them really had that pick-me-up I know the Hot Clicks audience needs on a Monday morning. Then I came across model Mary Riley and my search stopped. If she doesn't inspire you to get over your busted bracket and move on with your life, I don't know what to tell you.
