Carr, Mullens added to CFP committee

“We are delighted that Jeff, Lloyd, Herb and Rob are joining the committee”, Hancock said in an issued statement.

Carr coached MI from 1996-2007, leading the Wolverines to their last national title in 1997.

Former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr was one of four new members named Thursday to the College Football Playoff selection committee.

The four new members replace Mike Gould, Pat Haden, Tom Osborne and Mike Tranghese, each of whom were original members of the committee.

Carr will begin a three-year term with the committee this spring.

The CFP selection committee chooses the top four teams for the playoff, assigns them to the semifinal games and places the next group of teams in the New Year’s bowl games.

Mullens will join the other 12 members of the committee in helping select the four playoff participants each of the next three seasons. “Each of those four fit that description perfectly”.

Bower, 62, was the face of Southern Miss football for almost two decades, and spent 29 total years in Hattiesburg as a quarterback, assistant coach and then head coach from 1990 to 2007.

Deromedi, 76, retired as the winningest coach in Mid-American Conference history compiling a 110-55-10 record at Central Michigan from 1978-93.

Mullens is the committee’s Pac-12 athletic director representative.

Mullens came to OR in 2010 after arriving from Kentucky, where he served as deputy director of athletics.

“Rob has always been completely in tune with our program and is passionate about college football”, UO football coach Mark Helfrich said.
