McCarney sad to see Allen fired at Kansas

November 5, 2001 By admin

Former Northern Iowa coach Terry Allen was fired Sunday as the head coach at Kansas. The Jayhawks are 2-6 after a 51-7 loss to Nebraska. On the Big-12 teleconference this morning, Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said he “felt terrible” about Allen’s dismissal. McCarney says Allen’s been a personal friend since they both grew up in Iowa City. He says Allen brought a lot of class and dignity to Kansas, and has been a great representative for the conference. McCarney says Allen lacked at Kansas what he had at Iowa State, patience. McCarney says most schools don’t want to wait for a program to be turned around.Defensive coordinator Tom Hayes takes over as interim head coach for the Jayhawks. Hayes is a native of Atlantic and says he takes over with mixed emotions. He says Allen is a good and honest man who has treated him well.
