In a move sure to earn him everlasting love in College Park, Barack Obama managed to comment on the coaching skills of both Gary Williams and John Thompson III while breaking down his bracket with ESPN's Andy Katz. Obama seems to think more highly of the Georgetown coach.

"I like Michigan State here," Obama said, in picking the Spartans to get by the Terps in the second round. "Maryland's got a great player, but Michigan State's got a great coach, and I think that makes the difference."

Fucking bwahah.

he said the same thing last year picking Syracuse over Oklahoma in the Sweet 16. one great player vs. the complete team and great coach. OU won easily.

i interpreted that as a dig against kalin lucas.

I just thought it was funny the president slammed one of the biggest legends in DC. Gary's top five anywhere around town, and I'm talking DC, not College Park.

You don't really think that was an intentional dig, do you? I think he was just searching for a quick bullet point for each team.

Of course it was unintentional. Which makes it even funnier.
