Sankey talks to McAfee

jack off please GIF


Sankey cares nothing about college football - only about his conference - if the CFP could be SEC only he’d take it. Could care less what this dude has to say

As well he should. That’s his job. Unfortunately the last two guys in that role for the ACC have zero conviction, presence, or foresight.

Yes. When I heard that CFP committee members spoke with him weekly it really made me angrier about the response of Phillips. I would imagine all conferences had the same courtesy. We already knew the ACC was without a strong leader; this just added the exclamation point.

He says two members of the Selection Committee visit with his office every week during the last games of the season..... You have to assume this happens with the ACC too?

Sankey did say the CFP committee has a primary and secondary contact person assigned to each conference.

I am so sick of this. They have better schedules because they control the ranking system. If you rank your teams higher. You are going to have a "stronger schedule" The media a*****es dont have the ball to tell them this. Duke, Loiuv, GT, Syr are just as good as Miss, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Vandy. But those teams are ranked higher. BECAUSE OF BIAS, and no one in the media says anything

Yeah, that worked in 2000 didn’t it? Cost Miami a chance of the national championship.

But with 12 teams (and it will no doubt grow - these things only move in one direction) an algorithm or AI selection makes far more sense than this Star Chamber nonsense. They could not have come up with a worse method - unless they just let the B10 and SEC ADs choose - than this clown car crew:

Mike Riley
Former Oregon State and Nebraska head coach, February 2027
Randall McDaniel
Former Arizona State player, February 2027
Gary Pinkel
Former Toledo and Missouri head coach, February 2027
Mack Rhoades
Baylor Athletic Director, February 2027
Hunter Yurachek
Arkansas Athletic Director, February 2027
Carla Williams
Virginia Athletic Director, February 2027
Chris Ault
Nevada Athletic Director, February 2026
Chet Gladchuk
Navy Athletic Director, February 2025
Jim Grobe
Former coach, February 2025
Warde Manuel
Michigan Athletic Director, February 2025
David Sayler,
Miami (OH) Athletic Director, February 2026
Will Shields
Former Nebraska player, February 2025
Kelly Whiteside
Former college football reporter for multiple outlets, February 2025

Sheesh...why the **** are so many athletic directors on the committee? Wtf do they realistically know about football. Also, their jobs to their school entail so much attention to all sports, I doubt they can focus fully on the entire landscape of football.

This explains so much.

I have always been a proponent of playing your way in. No voting. Sometimes this is a problem when strength of schedules differ, but that can't be helped. The current 12-team format is better but limited by politics when picking the bottom 10-12. This was inevitable, and would be the same with 16 teams and selecting 14-16.

We'll see what happens when the current CFP contract expires.

My prediction is the SEC and B1G poach a few more teams, hopefully Miami among them, and the two conferences becomes 'Tier 1' of college football. The remainder of the ACC and Big 12 are 'Tiers 2-3', along with some G5 teams.

I think they'll end up with a 32 team bracket - eventually. Two teams would play 5 extra games, four 4 extra, eight 3 extra. Too much money to be made not to do it, and they can drop the last pretense regarding "student athletes".

Far too many games in my opinion. But your point is taken.
