Ronald Eugene "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, former Georgia State player R. J. Hunter, was a first-round draft pick for the Boston Celtics.
Hunter attended and played for Chaminade-Julienne High School in Dayton, Ohio from 1978 to 1982.
From 1994 to 2011, Hunter had been the head coach at IUPUI. 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 NCAA Division I. Hunter left IUPUI in March 2011, and took over for Rod Barnes as the Georgia State Panthers' men's basketball head coach.
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.
