This will already be the 2nd time Ingram has transferred. He joined the Tigers after leaving Central Michigan after the 2020 season. Ingram got his 1st and only carries at Auburn last season, carrying twice for 8 yards in a 62-0 victory over Alabama State in Week 2. He did not see any game action this season and did not see any action prior to joining Auburn.
Ingram was a 3-star prospect coming out of Mobile, Alabama, in the 2020 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all 4 major recruiting media companies.
The 6-1, 209-pound Ingram was a standout at St. Paul’s Episcopal. He was named a 1st-team all-Coastal Alabama selection by AL.com in 2019 and was a 2nd-team Class 6A All-State pick, rushing for 1,394 yards and 18 touchdowns as a senior at St. Paul’s.
Ingram also caught 15 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown for head coach Steve Mask and played in the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game.
