It's the biggest buyout ever paid by a Big Ten school, surpassed nationally only by Texas A&M's recent payout of more than $75 million to Jimbo Fisher and the $21.2 million Auburn owed Gus Malzahn when he was fired after the 2020 season. Allen's successes and failures in Indiana mirrored the way college football has changed. Before name, image and likeness deals and building programs through the transfer portal became the norm, Allen's teams posted a 24-25 mark and he coached in three bowl games — all losses, the first coming in his college head coaching debut in 2016.
