The madness of March took a turn towards actual madness Thursday afternoon when University of Virginia head coach Tony Bennett collapsed during the team’s first-round matchup against 16-seed Hamilton. Because we’re all human and constantly fear for the worst (the obvious assumption was he could’ve suffered some sort of heart attack), but Bennett returned to the bench for the second half and explained that he was fine. Just a little dehydrated.
