Georgia State coach breaks cast in fall, has to get new one

http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/sports-cbk/20150320/NCAA-Georgia.State-Hunter/

Georgia State coach Ron Hunter doesn't mind getting a new cast. But don't even think about swapping out his chair.

Hunter cracked the cast on his left leg during his now-famous fall that followed his son's game-winning shot against Baylor on Thursday.

Hunter made headlines and highlights across the country - he was the talk of the NCAA Tournament's opening day, really - when he fell off his rolling stool while celebrating R.J. Hunter's NBA-range 3-pointer with 2.7 seconds remaining. It turned out to be the difference in a 57-56 victory that left 14th-seeded Georgia State one win shy of the Sweet 16....

''When I got to the locker room, I started pulling some of the stuff away and it just opened up,'' he said. ''(My doctor) looked at it and said, `This is wrong, You're making it worse.' ... This has been an interesting, interesting week. We're winning, I'm getting banged up, I'm getting cut on, I'm getting everything. The players are absolutely just killing me with all this right now.''


Ouch! That's gotta hurt. Also note that R.J. Hunter is Ron Hunter's son (!), which might be good news for Valpo as they take on Maryland. (You do remember Bryce Drew, right? )
