Edgar Ramey Wingard (September 21, 1878 – July 31, 1927) was an American football, basketball, and baseball coach and college athletics administrator. He served as the head football coach at seven different schools: Ohio Northern University (1903), Butler University (1904–1905), Western University of Pennsylvania—now known as the University of Pittsburgh (1906), Louisiana State University (1907–1908),{{cite web|url=http://www.lsusports.net/fls/5200/assets/docs/fb/pdf/17guide.pdf|title=LSU Year-by-Year Records|publisher=lsusports.net|page=107|access-date=July 29, 2018|archive-date=January 19, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180119120040/http://www.lsusports.net/fls/5200/assets/docs/fb/pdf/17guide.pdf|url-status=dead}} the University of Maine (1910–1911), Susquehanna University (1916–1917, 1919, 1924–1925), and Bucknell University (1918), compiling a career record of 74–38–6. In 1908, Wingard led his LSU team to a record of 10–0. The team has been recognized as a national champion by the National Championship Foundation, although LSU does not officially claim a national title that season. Wingard was the head coach of the basketball team at Butler from 1904 to 1906 and the head coach of the first LSU Tigers basketball team during the 1908–09 season.{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/louisiana-state/coaches.html|title=LSU Fighting Tigers Coaches|publisher=sports-reference.com|access-date=July 29, 2018}} He coached the LSU Tigers baseball team in 1908 and 1909{{cite web |author= |title=2022 LSU Baseball Record Book |date=June 2022 |url=https://lsusports.net/2022-lsu-baseball-record-book/ |publisher=LSU Athletics, Louisiana State University |page=102 |access-date=March 8, 2023 }} and the baseball team at Maine in 1911.
