USA TODAY Sports

Sister Jean holds athletic shoes that the basketball team gave to her at Loyola-Chicago. The Ramblers made the Elite 8 and will face Kansas State.

Sister Jean has taken the sports world by storm. And now, she's moving in on the collectibles market.

The 98-year-old nun, a mainstay with the NCAA tournament Cinderella team Loyola-Chicago, soon could be nodding at Ramblers fans everywhere.

According to the Bobblehead Hall of Fame, Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt is getting a new bobblehead, which will be licensed by Loyola-Chicago. It is available for preorder for $25, with part of the proceeds going to the Loyola Athletic Fund and the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The wobbler is being created by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, will be numbered and ships in June.

LEGO announced Thursday that it had created a dunking version of Sister Jean.

This isn't the first time Sister Jean has seen her likeness in a bobblehead. Some lucky fans may have an earlier version from Sister Jean bobblehead night in 2011 and 2015. But they are hard to come by.

What's next for the beloved team chaplain? Maybe an NCAA title.
