Tony Ingle (born June 11, 1952) is an American college basketball coach, most recently for the men's basketball team at Dalton State College in Georgia.
born in Dalton, Georgia, Ingle was a star player at North Whitfield High School in Georgia. He played varsity all four seasons and earned MVP honors for the team in both his junior and senior years. In his final season (1971), he was named First Team All-Tri State Squad by the Chattanooga Free Press.
His collegiate career began at Dalton Junior College. In each of his two years at the school, the Roadrunners won the state and regional championships for junior colleges. Ingle finished his playing career at Huntingdon College in Montgomery, Alabama.
Ingle's coaching career began before his playing career was over. He coached local youth teams during his time as a student at Huntingdon College. After graduating with a degree in physical education, he returned to Georgia, where he coached at three different high schools. Ingle led Cherokee High School of Canton, Ga., to the state championship game in 1982, finishing runner-up.
His college coaching career began at Gordon College in Barnesville, Georgia. He was tasked with restarting a basketball program that had been dormant for over a decade. Ingle built a winning program at Gordon; posting a record of 61-32 in three seasons at the school. In his final season, Ingle led the Hilltoppers to the NJCAA Region XVII championship game. In 1988, he took the head coaching job at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. The team posted a 10-18 record, but it was actually an improvement over the previous three seasons, when UAH won just 16 total games.
Ingle entered the world of Division I college basketball in 1989, when he joined Roger Reid's staff at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Ingle served as an assistant under Reid for seven seasons. During that time, BYU saw tremendous success on the basketball court: the Cougars won five WAC championships and made five appearances in the NCAA Tournament. However, the program crashed early in the 1996-97 season. The team was decimated by injuries, and several key players left the school. After starting the season with a 1-6 record, Reid was fired, and Ingle took over as interim head coach. BYU didn't win another game the rest of the season, posting an 0-19 record under Ingle.
