Highland Park coach Randy Allen visits Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys had a very special visitor at their practice facilities on Friday.

It was Highland Park High School legendary head football coach Randy Allen.

On Dec. 17, Allen and the Scots defeated Temple 16-7 to win the Class 5A Division 1 state football title. For Allen, the game was special on two other fronts.

First, the game occurred at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, which is the home of the Cowboys. And second, the Scots’ quarterback is John Stephen Jones, who is the son of Stephen Jones -- the Cowboy’ vice president.

Thus, when Allen toured the Cowboys’ practice facilities for the first time on Friday, he couldn’t help but get nostalgic.
