The Athletic Directors from the schools that have won the most BCS Championships should clearly make-up the members.

Nobody "retires" as a vegas oddsmaker...they just go on a long vacation in the desert.

When you started with 4down20 we all knew you weren't serious.

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.

a bunch of old farts?

And hell no to Don James.

Any list without Dari Nowkah is null and void.

Selection committee

Is really going to current ads at schools? This seems like a major flaw. Great for wisky USC and Clemson

Here's the six we know of so far:

Barry Alvarez (Wisconsin AD)
Pat Haden (USC AD)
Oliver Luck (West Virginia AD)
Dan Radakovich (Clemson AD)
Jeff Long (Arkansas AD)
Mike Tranghese (former Big East commish)


Not sure why the Big East gets a rep...

Wtf. Just saw condoleezza rice is going to serve on the committee as well?

:wtf2: :noidea:

She's actually a very avid college football fan and is known to get up 2 am in Israel to watch CFB. Also, if you want an unbiased person, she's probably about as unbiased as you could get when it comes to college football.
