UK big man DeMarcus Cousins kept a poker face when asked about President Obama picking Kansas to beat Kentucky in the national championship game.
“People have their own thoughts,” Cousins said.
However, a reporter asking Cousins to predict how Obama will do in a re-election bid in 2012 brought a smile to Cousins’ face.
But he refused to make a prediction on the election.
In unveiling his presidential brackets on ESPN, Obama made a reference to his call to Kentucky’s team earlier this season. He told John Calipari that Kentucky could have no problem in the game that night at South Carolina. Of course, the Cats lost.

“They lost to the Gamecocks and I think that was a good lesson for them . . . ,” Obama told ESPN’s Andy Katz. “And I think … (Kentucky coach John) Calipari will have them ready.”
