Much to the dismay of Carolina fans, Carlen's accomplishments on the field went unnoticed by the media and administration. After years of investigation, it was found that then-president James Holderman was embezzling funds from the university, an issue now thought to have cost Carlen his job.

"Holderman and The State paper wiped out my seven years," Carlen said. "(President Holderman relieved me.) I called The State paper last Sunday to tell (them) that I wanted to thank you because for the first time you admitted that you covered up for Dr. Holderman. And that cost me my job. People ask, 'Coach, why didn't you tell us?' I say I'm not bigger than the university. That's for the board of trustees to have known that. I wasn't wrong was I? It took 10 years. But he's in his third prison."

West Virginia, Texas Tech, even South Carolina. Was an assistant coach for Bobby Dodd. His brutal honesty on his TV show often got him into trouble.

Had lunch with him several years ago and it was a pleasure. He was a good guy. Sorry to see him go. He was a class guy.
