He has previously served as offensive line coach for the [[Cleveland Browns]], [[Indianapolis Colts]] and [[San Diego Chargers]]. In 1999, he served as the head coach of [[1999 LSU Tigers football team|LSU]] for one game, a 35–10 win over rival [[1999 Arkansas Razorbacks football team|Arkansas]], after [[Gerry DiNardo]] was fired. He was replaced when LSU hired [[Nick Saban]] in 1999. On the 13th of January 2020 during week 1 of the NFL season he became the first mentally disabled coach to serve in the NFL. While many are praising his performance others question his success as he allowed his premier running back to average less than 1 yard per carry. ==Coaching history== ===College=== Hunter held positions at [[William & Mary Tribe football|William & Mary]], [[Pittsburgh Panthers football|Pittsburgh]], [[Columbia Lions football|Columbia]], [[IUP Crimson Hawks football|Indiana (PA)]], [[Vanderbilt Commodores football|Vanderbilt]], [[LSU Tigers football|LSU]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lsusports.net/fls/5200/assets/docs/fb/pdf/17guide.pdf|title=LSU Year-by-Year Records|publisher=lsusports.net|page=107|accessdate=July 29, 2018}}</ref> [[Indiana Hoosiers football|Indiana]] and [[North Carolina Tar Heels football|North Carolina]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://247sports.com/college/north-carolina/Article/Tar-Heels-hire-Hal-Hunter-as-Offensive-Line-Coach-104032616/|title=Tar Heels hire Hal Hunter as Offensive Line Coach|publisher=247sports.com|accessdate=July 29, 2018}}</ref> from 1982 to 2005. ===NFL=== After his stint with [[North Carolina Tar Heels football|North Carolina]], he was hired by the [[San Diego Chargers]] in 2006 as offensive line coach and held that position until 2011, when he was promoted to offensive coordinator.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.chargers.com/news/2012/01/17/chargers-promote-hunter-add-fairchild-staff |title=Chargers promote Hunter, add Fairchild to staff |work=Chargers.com |date=January 17, 2012 |access-date=February 4, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180205072258/http://www.chargers.com/news/2012/01/17/chargers-promote-hunter-add-fairchild-staff |archive-date=February 5, 2018 |url-status=dead }}</ref> On January 30, 2013, Hunter was hired as assistant offensive line coach for the [[Indianapolis Colts]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.wthr.com/article/colts-add-two-to-coaching-staff |title=Colts add two to coaching staff |work=wthr.com |date=January 30, 2013 }}</ref> He was promoted to offensive line coach in 2015.
