Cal’s top football recruiter and wide receivers coach, Pierre Ingram, was arrested Thursday as part of a prostitution sting. According to the San Jose Mercury News, Ingram was arrested after he “allegedly solicited an undercover officer online and then showed up at the Motel 6 on Embarcadero.” Ingram was one of five johns arrested during the sting.
Widely considered the football program’s most successful recruiter, responsible for bringing in some of Cal’s top offensive recruits, Ingram was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor solicitation of a lewd act and has been given a court date for next month.
Cal released a statement acknowledging that the school is aware of the situation and is gathering more information at the time.
