Fran Dunphy's mustache is no more, but before we really acknowledge that fact, I thought I'd share a photo sent to me by Director of Penn Athletics Communications Mike Mahoney. It's of Dunphy and his 1991-92 Penn team. You'll notice in the back left a young man by the name of Jerome Allen.

Dunphy, who's coached Temple for four years now, shaved his trademark 'stache today in the basement of the Liacouras Center in honor of his former player Dionte Christmas' graduation.

The700Level.com has a great recap of the event, but here are a few words from the man of the hour himself:

"I know that everybody's here because I'm shaving my mustache," said Dunphy, with Christmas seated beside him. "But the bigger story is that this young man has graduated from Temple University."

"My family has never seen me without it. My wife never has. And, uh, I don't know...she wasn't all that fired up," Dunphy laughed.
