College Football Playoff Selection Committee
Since these will be the guys that will be selecting which of our collective teams will get a shot at the National Championship every year, I thought it might be interesting to see who everyone thought should be on the list.
Here is what College Football Playoff executive director Bill Hancock has said previously will be included:
No current commissioners, coaches or media members would be on the committee, which will determine the four teams in the playoff. Besides current athletic directors, former coaches, athletic directors and administrators will be on the committee, which is expected to consist of 12 to 20 members. Hancock also has said previously there could be one retired media member on the committee.
Here is my Top Ten(not in order)
1. Tom Osbourne
2. Keith Jackson
3. Howard Schnellenberger
4. Barry Alvarez
5. Gene Stallings
6. Vince Dooley
7. Don Nehlan
8. Fisher DeBerry
9. Lloyd Carr
10. Don James
Others I considered: Deloss Dodds, John Robinson, Frank Broyles, LaVell Edwards, Hayden Fry, Dick MacPherson, Bobby Bowden, Barry Switzer and Ara Parseghian.
Of course there are two main problems with choosing any list of former coaches, AD's, administrators and such...Death and Dementia...but outside of current AD's, everybody under consideration is retired, most are at least in their late 70's, so the alternate list better be kept current.
