Allen only pitched seven innings last season, striking out eight total. He started his career with five straight scoreless appearances in relief, but his last four games he gave up at least a run each time. This was capped off by a three-run one-inning appearance to end the season against Dallas Baptist.

Allen went to Oklahoma from Rogers, Arkansas and played baseball at IMG Academy. He has a fastball that sits in the low 90s and also throws a slider, curveball and a change up. Prior to signing with Oklahoma, he was a verbal commitment to Georgia Tech.
