When Clemson Athletics Director Dan Radakovich steps down from the College Football Playoff selection committe after this year’s college football playoff, there will be a need for a new ACC representative.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Georgia Tech AD Todd Stansbury may be that man. Stansbury confirmed to the AJC that he was asked a few weeks ago by conference commissioner John Swofford if he would have interest in serving, which he assuredly did.
“I think it’d be an incredible honor,” Stansbury told the AJC.
The ACC needs to give the 13-person committee a replacement for Radakovich, the former Tech AD whose four-year term concludes with this year’s selection of the four-team playoff. The championship will be held Jan. 8 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
The committee is highly visible both because of its weekly rankings and well-known administrators. Not to mention former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice college football greats Archie Manning, Tom Osborne and Lloyd Carr have served.
A former newspaper veteran, Keith Farner is a news manager for Saturday Down South.
