4 Georgia State Men s Basketball Notes (page 4) HOME SWEET HOME When coach Ron Hunter took over the Panthers, one of the first things he proclaimed was that the GSU Sports Arena would become one of the toughest places in the country. So far, he has been correct. The Panthers are 6615 in the comfy confines of the Sports Arena since his arrival. The Panthers have gone 568 at home the last fourplus seasons. During that span, Georgia State put together an 18game winning streak which ranks secondlongest in school history. Here are the longest home court winning streaks in school history: to *3rdlongest streak in nation at time to 1514 (130 during season) to (last 7 of 1415 season, first 8 of 1516) HEAD OF THE CLASS Ron Hunter became the alltime winningest coach at Georgia State last season and entered the year with 123 victories in six seasons. He has shattered every wins mark in school history with the exception of the singleseason record of 29 wins held by Charles Lefty Driesell. Hunter surpassed Bob Reinhart for the record on Dec. 10, Ironically, Reinhart, now a scout for the Miami Heat, was in the building when Hunter tied the record. ELITE GROUP When head coach Ron Hunter won his 108th game at GSU last year, he joined an elite group of coaches who are considered the alltime wins leader at multiple schools. Hunter coached IUPUI for 17 years and is still the alltime wins leader for the Jaguars. The list of coaches who lead at multiple schools includes: Ronnie Arrow Texas A&MCC and South Alabama Jim Calhoun Northeastern and Connecticut Leonard Hamilton Miami (Fla.) and Florida State Lou Henson New Mexico State and Illinois Ron Hunter IUPUI and Georgia State Gregg Marshall Winthrop and Wichita State Johnny Orr Michigan and Iowa State ON TO THE PROS Under head coach Ron Hunter, the number of former Georgia State players to go on to play professionally has greatly increased. Two years ago, R.J. Hunter was selected with the 28th pick in the first round of the NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics. He was signed by the Chicago Bulls in late October 2016 before spending the spring with the Brooklyn Nets GLeague team. He was signed to the Houston Rockets on Jan. 13 after a stint with the Rockets GLeague affiliate Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Hunter was named NBA GLeague Player of the Week on Dec. 4. Also from two years ago, Ryan Harrow went to play overseas in Greece and is now in Italy. Curtis Washington has already played professionally in Hong Kong before going to Argentina and seeing action in the NBDL. Kevin Ware has gone on to play in Finland. From last year s squad, Jeremy Hollowell was selected by the Erie BayHawks (Atlanta Hawks GLeague franchise) in the first round of the draft, while Willie Clayton is playing in Cyprus. SEEN WORLDWIDE For the thirdstraight year, all Georgia State home games will air live on WatchESPN/ESPN3 this season. With the program s rise, nearly every game will be seen worldwide this year. Of the Panthers 31 games, 24 are currently scheduled to air live. Sam Crenshaw returns for the third year of calling playbyplay for home games.

The Panthers are 70 when Hunter has gone without socks and shoes to raise awareness for the 300 million children around the world without shoes. This marked the 11th straight year Hunter has gone barefoot for a game. As part of his work with Samaritan s Feet, Georgia State has traveled to South Africa (2012), Costa Rica (2014) and the Dominican Republic (2016) to take part in shoe distributions with the organization.
