Larry Hunter is the 17th head coach of the Western Carolina University men's basketball team. He had been head coach of the Ohio Bobcats men's basketball team from 1989-2001, compiling a winning percentage of .580 (204-148). His teams made one NCAA Tournament appearance in 1994, an National Invitation Tournament appearance in 1995, and won the prestigious Pre-Season NIT in 1994. Despite his good record as coach of the Bobcats, Hunter was relieved of his duties in 2001 for a lack of postseason success.
Ohio University hired its alumnus away from Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio near Dayton, Ohio, where Hunter enjoyed considerable success. Before moving to Western Carolina, he was an assistant for Coach Herb Sendek at North Carolina State University.
