Barack Obama, like most of us, didn’t see Georgia State upsetting Baylor in the NCAA Tournament. Luckily, our brackets aren’t shown to millions of people.
You better believe Georgia State saw Obama’s bracket — which the president unveiled earlier in the week on ESPN — in which he took No. 3 seed Baylor to topple the No. 14 Panthers.
So when Georgia State retreated to its locker room after the shocking upset Thursday, head coach Ron Hunter couldn’t resist taking a little dig at the Commander in Chief.

Hunter has become something of an NCAA Tournament darling in the last week or so. He tore his Achilles while celebrating his team’s tourney berth, forcing him to coach Thursday on a rolling stool. He fell off that stool in a moment of joyous exultation while celebrating the game-winning shot by R.J. Hunter — the coach’s son.
