Ames, Iowa ? Despite being pursued by North Dakota State officials to fill their head-coaching position, Iowa State associate head football coach Terry Allen will remain the Cyclones’ tight ends coach this fall.
Allen was head coach at Kansas University from 1997 to 2001. The Iowa City native also coached at Northern Iowa, where his teams won seven conference titles and earned two semifinal berths in the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs.
“North Dakota State was a great opportunity,” Allen said. “It has great leadership from an outstanding president and athletic director. Ultimately, I enjoy being here with (ISU coach) Dan McCarney as we build on the success of the last three seasons.”
