James Gillian "Mutt" Gee (August 20, 1896 – October 29, 1982) was an American college football player and coach and college administrator. Gee played college football at Clemson University as a center and was selected All-Southern in 1917. He also lettered in baseball as Clemson.[1] Gee and Josh Cody were instrumental in building the Fike Recreation Center.[2] Gee was inducted into the Clemson Athletics Hall of Fame in 1975.[1][3]

Gee coached football at Sam Houston State University from 1920 to 1922, compiling a record of 6–7–4.[4]. He returned to his alma mater, Clemson in 1927 to serve as the school's athletic director. He later became the president at East Texas State University—now known as Texas A&M University–Commerce.[5]
