'''Forrest Clare''' "'''Phog'''" '''Allen''' (November 18, 1885 – September 16, 1974) was an American [[basketball]] coach and [[physician]]. Known as the "Father of Basketball Coaching,"<ref name=basketballhalloffame>[http://www.hoophall.com/hall-of-famers/tag/forrest-c-phog-allen Basketball Hall of Fame bio] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090831070304/http://www.hoophall.com/hall-of-famers/tag/forrest-c-phog-allen |date=August 31, 2009 }}</ref> he served as the head basketball coach at [[Baker University]] (1905–1908), the [[University of Kansas]] (1907–1909, 1919–1956), Haskell Institute&mdash;now [[Haskell Indian Nations University]] (1908–1909), and Warrensburg Teachers College&mdash;now the [[University of Central Missouri]] (1912–1919), compiling a career [[college basketball]] head coaching record of 746–264. In his 39 seasons at the helm of the [[Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball]] program, his teams won 24 conference championships<ref>{{cite web |title=Phog Allen Profile |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/coaches/phog-allen-1.html |website=SportsReference.com}}</ref> and three national titles.<ref name="HOF">{{cite web |title=Phog Allen profile |url=https://www.hoophall.com/hall-of-famers/phog-allen/ |website=HoopHall.com}}</ref>

The [[Helms Athletic Foundation]] retroactively recognized Allen's [[1921–22 Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team|1921–22]] and [[1922–23 Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team|1922–23]] Kansas teams as national champions. Allen's [[1951–52 Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team|1951–52 squad]] won the [[1952 NCAA basketball tournament|1952 NCAA tournament]] and his Jayhawks were runners-up in the NCAA Tournament in [[1940 NCAA basketball tournament|1940]] and [[1953 NCAA basketball tournament|1953]]. His 590 wins are the second most of any coach in the history of the storied Kansas basketball program.

Allen attended the University of Kansas, having already acquired the nickname "Phog" for the distinctive foghorn voice he had as a baseball umpire. At KU, Allen was a member of [[Phi Kappa Psi]] fraternity. <ref>{{cite web|title=Phog's First Farewell|url=http://kuhistory.com/articles/phogs-first-farewell/|website=KU History}}</ref> 

He lettered in baseball and basketball, the latter under [[James Naismith]], the inventor of the game. Allen served as the head football coach at Warrensburg Teachers College from 1912 to 1917 and at Kansas for one season in 1920, amassing a career [[college football]] head coaching record of 34–19–3. He also coached baseball at Kansas for two seasons, in 1941 and 1942, tallying a mark of 6–17–1, and was the university's [[athletic director]] from 1919 to 1937.

Allen was inducted into the [[Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame]] with the inaugural class of 1959.<ref name="HOF" />The home basketball arena at the University of Kansas, [[Allen Fieldhouse]], was named in his honor when it opened in 1955. His final season at Kansas was the first full season the Jayhawks played at Allen Fieldhouse.

==Early life==
Allen was born in the town of [[Jamesport, Missouri]]. His father, William Allen, was among the 30 people who originally incorporated [[Jameson, Missouri]] in 1879 and the doctor who delivered Allen lived in James. However, he had strong ties to Jamesport where he was town clerk, collector, and constable. His family later moved to [[Independence, Missouri]].<ref>{{usurped|1=[https://archive.today/20090324133815/http://www.stjoenews.net/news/2009/mar/15/man-behind-march-madness/ The man behind March Madness - St. Joseph News-Press - March 15, 2009]}}</ref>

[[James Naismith]], the man who created basketball, coached Allen from 1905 to 1907 at the [[University of Kansas]] in Lawrence. Allen spent his last two years on school (1907–09) as the team's coach. Naismith inspired Phog Allen to pursue a medical degree as well. After two years of coaching, Allen took a three-year break to complete his degree at Kansas City's Central College of Osteopathy (now [[Kansas City University]] College of Osteopathic Medicine). After graduating from medical school, Allen integrated numerous concepts of healthy eating, efficient exercise regimens, and proper body alignment into his coaching. A section on sports medicine was included in his book, ''My Basket-Ball Bible''. Among the many elite athletes he treated at his downtown office at 13 E. 8th St. was [[Mickey Mantle]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Phog Allen {{!}} Kansas Jayhawks, Basketball Innovator, Hall of Fame {{!}} Britannica |url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Phog-Allen |access-date=2024-03-29 |website=www.britannica.com |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-02-28 |title=Physicians and Coaches: Dr. James Naismith and Dr. Phog Allen |url=https://www.explorelawrence.com/blog/post/physicians-and-coaches-dr-james-naismith-and-dr-phog-allen/ |access-date=2024-03-29 |website=www.explorelawrence.com |language=en-us}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Sher |first=Alex |date=2024-03-28 |title=Forrest 'Phog' Allen, DO: The father of basketball coaching |url=https://thedo.osteopathic.org/2024/03/forrest-phog-allen-do-the-father-of-basketball-coaching/ |access-date=2024-03-29 |website=The DO |language=en-US}}</ref>

==Playing career==
Allen began classes at the [[University of Kansas]] in 1904, where he [[Varsity letter|lettered]] three years in basketball under James Naismith's coaching, and two years in [[baseball]]. Unlike his time as a coach, the Jayhawks struggled on the court. In his three seasons as a player, the team only had one winning season. He was a player for the team for the Jayhawks' first games in their rivalries against [[Sunflower Showdown|Kansas State]] and [[Border War (Kansas–Missouri rivalry)|Missouri]]. In 1905 he also played for the [[Kansas City Athletic Club]].<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=kHVGigFqcNkC&dq=%22Kansas+City+Athletic+Club%22&pg=PA6 The Golden Age of Amateur Basketball: The AAU Tournament - Adolph H. Grundman (Author) - 1921-1968 - Bison Books (October 1, 2004)] {{ISBN|0-8032-7117-4}}</ref> At Kansas, he was a member of [[Phi Kappa Psi]] [[Fraternities and sororities|Fraternity]]. 

==Coaching career==
===Basketball===
Allen coached at [[William Chrisman High School]] (then known as Independence High School) in [[Independence, Missouri]], the [[University of Kansas]], [[Baker University]], [[Haskell Indian Nations University|Haskell Institute]], and [[University of Central Missouri|Warrensburg Teachers College]] in [[Warrensburg, Missouri]].

Allen launched his coaching career at his [[alma mater]] in 1907, but took a hiatus after graduating in 1909 to study [[Osteopathic medicine in the United States|osteopathic medicine]] at [[Central College of Osteopathy]] in Kansas City, Missouri. Known as “Doc” to his players and students, he was reputed to be a colorful figure on the [[University of Kansas]] campus, coaching all sports and becoming known for his [[Osteopathic manipulative medicine|osteopathic manipulation techniques]] for ailing [[Sportsperson|athletes]].

Allen was a legend in the field of treatment of athletic injuries and benefited a long list of high-profile performers. He also had a successful private osteopathic practice, and many he treated, the famous and otherwise, contended he had a "magic touch" for such ailments as bad backs, knees and ankles. He said he applied the same treatments to "civilians" as he did to his athletes.

His forceful, yet reasonable, disposition helped him become the driving force behind the acceptance of [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|basketball as an official Olympic sport]] at the [[Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics|1936 Summer Olympic Games]]. Allen later worked as an assistant coach in the [[Basketball at the 1952 Summer Olympics|1952 Summer Olympics]],<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150226121735/http://www.usab.com/history/national-team-mens/games-of-the-xvth-olympiad-1952.aspx Games of the XVth Olympiad -- 1952.]</ref> helping to lead the [[United States men's national basketball team|United States]] to the [[gold medal]] in [[Helsinki]], Finland.

He coached college basketball for 50 seasons, and compiled a 746–264 record, retiring with the all-time record for most coaching wins in [[college basketball]] history at the time. During his tenure at Kansas, Allen coached [[Dutch Lonborg]], [[Adolph Rupp]], [[Ralph Miller]] and [[Dean Smith]], all future [[Basketball Hall of Fame|Hall of Fame]] coaches. During the summers of 1930, 1931, and 1932, he directed the prestigious basketball coaching program at [[Springfield College]] in Massachusetts, the birthplace of basketball. While at Springfield College, Allen developed a close friendship with his assistant, [[Lee Patton]], who later became a legendary basketball coach at [https://wvusports.com/sports/mens-basketball West Virginia University]. He also coached [[John Bunn (basketball)|John Bunn]], who is a member of the Hall of Fame and did go on to coach at [[Stanford Cardinal men's basketball|Stanford]], but he is honored as a contributor to the game of basketball.{{Citation needed|date=September 2022}} 

Additional former players that make up Allen's [[coaching tree]] who coached at the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|collegiate level]] but are not enshrined in the Hall of Fame include [[Frosty Cox]], [[George E. Rody]], [[Andrew McDonald (coach)|Andrew McDonald]], [[Charlie T. Black]], [[Howard Engleman]] and his replacement upon retirement [[Dick Harp]]. Among the Hall of Fame players he coached were [[Paul Endacott]], [[Skinny Johnson|Bill Johnson]], and [[Clyde Lovellette]]. He also recruited [[Wilt Chamberlain]] to Kansas, and even coached former [[United States Senate Majority Leader]] [[Bob Dole]]. [[Allen Fieldhouse]], the basketball arena on the campus of the University of Kansas, is named in his honor. A banner that hangs in the rafters of Allen Fieldhouse reads: "Pay heed all who enter, beware of the Phog." He was enshrined as part of the inaugural class in the [[Basketball Hall of Fame]] in 1959.

Allen also created the [[National Association of Basketball Coaches]], which went on to create the NCAA tournament.<ref>[http://nabc.cstv.com/about/about-history-keydates.html Key Dates in NABC History] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081026084538/http://nabc.cstv.com/about/about-history-keydates.html |date=October 26, 2008 }}</ref>

===Football===
====Warrensburg====
Allen coached the football team at Warrensburg Teacher's College, now known as [[University of Central Missouri]]. At Warrensburg, he coached for six seasons. The team won their conference title each of his first four seasons as coach. He left after the 1917 and focused on his basketball coaching duties. He finished his time at the school with a 29–17–2 record.

====Kansas====
Allen was hired as the coach for the [[Kansas Jayhawks football|Jayhawks football team]] in 1920. The Jayhawks began the season 5–0, including a 14–0 victory over rival Kansas State. Kansas would lose 2 of their last 3 games and tie the other game to finish the season 5–2–1. They finished 3rd in the MVIAA. Allen resigned at the conclusion of the season to focus on his duties as the men's basketball coach, coaching only one season for the football program.
