McIntyre was one of the first linemen in the modern age of the NFL to be used as a blocking back/fullback (in Bill Walsh's "Angus" short-yardage formation); it was when this offense was used in the 1984 NFC Championship Game in the defeat of the Chicago Bears that motivated Bears coach Mike Ditka to use the same formation the following year, with William Perry, the "Refrigerator" as the blocking back, though Perry would also be used as a runner.[1]

McIntyre starred at Georgia from 1979-1983, where he has a team captain in 1983 and an SEC champion in 1981 and 1982. The Thomasville native won the Jacobs Blocking Trophy in 1983 - or best SEC lineman - as voted by SEC coaches. He was named All-SEC in 1982 and 1983 and a second-team All American in 1983.

McIntyre attended Thomasville High School, where he played high school football for the Bulldogs.
