Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith take a spin on Georgia State coach’s famous scooter

Georgia State coach Ron Hunter is making the most of his Achilles injury. Now Charles Barkley wants one of his scooters.

Georgia State coach Ron Hunter has become the darling of the NCAA Tournament -- he tore his Achilles celebrating his team’s tournament bid, then he fell off his stool after his son’s huge buzzer-beater to give the Panthers a shocking upset. Now Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith want that scooter he’s using.

Smith complained about the position his knee was in, suggesting a better solution would be to have somebody carry him. Barkley liked it a lot, though, asking his family to buy him one for Christmas. (Although he said he was short of breath after his little ride.)

The scooter isn’t the only thing you need to know about Hunter -- he’s also an incredible quote.
