Ron Hunter (born April 7, 1964) is an American college basketball coach and the current head men's basketball coach of the Georgia State University Panthers. His son is Georgia State player R. J. Hunter.

Coaching career

As of the 2010–11 season, Ron Hunter had been at IUPUI for seventeen seasons.[1] He led the team to its first, and thus far only, NCAA tournament appearance in 2003. Under his tutelage, the team transitioned from an NAIA program to the desirable NCAA Division I. In March 2011 he took over the fired Rod Barnes as the Panthers' men's basketball head coach.[1]

On January 24, 2008, Hunter coached a game against Oakland University barefoot. He did this to benefit Samaritan's Feet, a foundation that donates shoes to people who cannot afford them. His goal was to raise 40,000 shoes, however, before tip-off, over 110,000 pairs of shoes had been donated.[2]
