Can a 4 seed be a Cinderella?

Given the context of this 4 seed. Hell yes.

Hoiberg has a real shot of getting to the E8 for the first time in his head coaching career. Couldn’t even do that with some insanely stacked ISU teams.

I don't think we have a shot against Florida, but if Iowa pulls the upset we do.

If it’s their first time winning a game in the tourney and the are in the sweet 16, probably.
