Allen is a great example of how being patient and waiting your turn can pay off. After learning to play behind All-ACC tight end Michael Palmer, Allen got his shot to show what he could do in 2010 and became perhaps the greatest tight end Clemson has ever had.

Allen broke all of Bennie Cunningham’s single-season and career records for a tight end while becoming a two-time All-ACC Player as well as a consensus All-American in 2011.
