Cormac was excited about Krum being chosen for Durmstrang and for a hot bird chosen for Beauxbatons. However, he groaned at brainless pretty-boy Diggory representing Hogwarts. A Hufflepuff? Really?
Harry Potter's name coming out of the Goblet, however, was the most brilliant thing ever. Cormac is convinced Potter cheated but he doesn't care. A Gryffindor is in the tournament, and one who was smart and sneaky enough to trick Dumbledore. Screw the age limits, he can win this!
