He resigned his position as head coach effective on March 10, 2015.
Allen joined the Boston Celtics in 2015 under head coach Brad Stevens.
Allen was one of Boston's longer-tenured assistants and was with the team for all but two seasons of the Brad Stevens era.
In summer 2021, Allen announced he was leaving the Celtics' coaching staff to join Dwane Casey in Detroit.
In October 2018, Allen pleaded guilty to accepting an $18,000 bribe in 2014 while the head coach at Penn to help a student get on the recruiting list in order to get accepted to the university.
He was ordered to pay back $18,000 in addition to a $200,000 fine.
He would testify on behalf of the federal government against the man he said had bribed him – Phillip Esformes.
During Esformes's trial, Allen testified that he had received about $300,000 in bribes from Esformes, and that the student in question was Esformes's son.

On February 26, 2020, the NCAA announced penalties against Allen and the Penn men's basketball program stemming from the bribes.
The program was placed on two years' probation but did not receive a postseason ban.
Allen received a 15-year show-cause penalty from the NCAA, effective until February 20, 2035.
It is the longest ever handed down to a (former) head coach.
During this period, any school that hires Allen must "show cause" for why it should not be sanctioned for doing so.
In an unusual move, if Allen gets a head coaching job after the show-cause expires, he must sit out the first half of the first season of his return.
It is very difficult for a head coach to return to the collegiate ranks even after a show-cause expires, since many presidents and athletic directors are extremely reluctant to hire someone with a show-cause on his record.
Only four coaches have ever worked in college basketball again after receiving a show-cause.
