I don't have much to tell you about Cecil "Hootie" Ingram, except as Keith Jackson notes-- he lead the nation in interceptions and posted a game record punt return against Syracuse in the 1953 Orange Bowl. he was also All SEC in both Football and Basketball
Ingram did go on to be the AD at Alabama in 1989 (previously he had been the AD at Florida State from 1980-88, when the 'Noles went to 8 bowl games), serve as a college football announcer and was the head coach at Clemson from 1970-1972. The biggest thing he did for the Tigers? He introduced the 'Tiger Paw" logo, but at the same time he went 12-21 following the Clemson coaching legend, Frank Howard.
