Penn's Jerome Allen has gotten the permanent gig.
The former Quakers star took over as the interim coach this
past season after Glenn Miller was fired following a 0-7 start.
"Jerome's talents and accomplishments in life are noteworthy
and familiar to the Penn community," Penn athletic director Steve
Bilsky said in a statement. "What isn't as well known, until you
spend time with him, is the humility that coincides with his pride.
It is the combination of these qualities, plus his vision to return
Penn to glory, that makes me so pleased to name him the John R.
Rockwell Head Coach of Men's Basketball."
Allen was 6-15 since he took over and Penn was 5-9 in Ivy
League play.
