Georgia State’s Coach Ron Hunter Falls Out Of Seat After Game-Winning Shot

Well it looks like another 14-seed has beat a three-seed, with Georgia State coming from behind to win 57-56 against Baylor. But the most entertaining part of the story has to be Georgia State’s coach Ron Hunter.

Everyone learned he was a little nuts after winning the Sun Belt Conference and tearing his achilles during the celebration.

As a result, he remained on a stool for majority of today’s game: well, the only time he really got out of it was when he fell. After being down in the first half, his team mounted an incredible comeback, which was capped off by his son, R.J. Hunter, hitting the game winning shot: sending his father crashing onto the floor.

Of course, he was a good sport about it.

But that did not stop people from wonderfully photoshopping the image.

In the locker room following the win, the coach was quite lively: even sending out a Vine message to Obama, who, along with the entire world, picked them to lose in the round of 64.
