Tom Allen is getting paid (again) Share this story Photo by Nic Antaya/Getty Images After turning Indiana into a top-10 team, Tom Allen has been rewarded — with the most lucrative contract IU has ever doled out. The athletic department announced Monday morning that Allen has agreed to an amendment to his current seven-year deal that will increase his annual average compensation to $4.9 million through the 2027 campaign. In keeping with the spirit of the contract he signed in December 2019, Allen will also continue to have a year added to the back end of the deal each season that the Hoosiers qualify for a bowl game.
