[QUOTE="Scioto, post: 4530528, member: 12310"] Another thing that should also change is the composition of the Committee, but I wouldn't know how to do it. Journalists in there casting votes really bothers me. This year Gene Smith (OSU AD), the Clemson AD, and Frank Beamer had to be recused from the final 4 votes. Smith and the Clemson AD for obvious conflict of interest reasons, but also I think Beamer's son coaches for Georgia. So on a 13 member committee, 23% of the members couldn't vote on the most important vote - the top 4. And I doubt they can put forth any arguments (or information for it could be construed as persuasion) in the meetings about their teams. I don't know how far the conflict extends. For example, if Smith was on it last year, did he have to recuse when the Committee voted Washington in and not Penn State? Need to have all 13 members able to vote without a conflict on the final 4.
