A week after Cal recruiting coordinator and wide receivers coach Pierre Ingram was arrested in a prostitution sting, the University announced Friday that his contract will not be renewed.

“As you are aware, Assistant Football Coach Ingram was placed on paid administrative leave following his recent arrest for solicitation. We are not renewing his contract and he will no longer represent or act on behalf of this University in any capacity,” Cal Athletics said in a statement.

According to the San Jose Mercury News, Ingram, 30, was arrested on April 16 for allegedly “soliciting an undercover officer online.” Ingram, who was recently named the Bears’ passing game coordinator, showed up at a Motel 6 in Oakland and was arrested on “suspicion of misdemeanor solicitation of a lewd act.”

Ingram was one of five men arrested in the sting operation. He has a court date scheduled for next month, police said.

The Cal athletic department said in a statement that it became aware of the matter “prior to the spring game,” which was played on April 18.

Pierre Ingram’s attorney, Darryl Stallworth, released a statement on his client’s behalf saying that Ingram is “deeply sorry.”

Ingram was entering his sixth season as an assistant under head coach Sonny Dykes, including three at Louisiana Tech. After spending the last two seasons as the Bears’ running backs coach, he was moved to wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator before spring practice began.

The Bears finished spring practice last week.
