How to Watch and Preview: Auburn Basketball v Georgia State

The 1-0 Auburn Tigers welcome Georgia State to the Plains for a Monday night matchup. Georgia State is another strong nonconference opponent. The Panthers are coached by Ron Hunter, the man who tore his achilles tendon celebrating Georgia State's 2015 NCAA Tournament win over #3 seed Baylor after his son nailed a three at the buzzer.

Coach Hunter has won 103 games in five years at Georgia State. The man can flat-out coach.

Coach Hunter is apparently a great man. He's very involved with a charity called Samaritan's Feet, which distributes as many as a million pairs of shoes and socks annually to the poor around the world.
