Indiana athletic director Fred Glass and new head coach Tom Allen led a press conference on Thursday evening in which Allen, the defensive coordinator, was announced as the new, permanent head coach of the program.
Glass began the press conference by explaining that he and former head coach Kevin Wilson had a continuation, and culmination, of a discussion over a handful of weeks that led to the resignation of Wilson.
Fred Glass said he has accepted the resignation of Kevin Wilson because of philosophical differences as to the leadership of program.
