Clemson is expected to name Penn State defensive coordinator Tom Allen to the same role with the Tigers, ESPN reported Monday.
Allen would replace Wes Goodwin, fired by Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney last week. The move is expected to be formalized this week, per the report.
Allen coached Penn State to top-10 rankings in scoring defense, total defense and rushing defense in 2024, his first season in Happy Valley.
Clemson allowed 160.6 rushing yards per game this past season, its worst performance since 2011, according to ESPN.
Allen, 54, went 33-49 as the head coach at Indiana in the seven seasons prior to joining Penn State coach James Franklin’s staff. Allen was named the 2020 Big Ten Coach of the Year.
