Ex-Michigan coach Lloyd Carr joins playoff committee

Former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr, Oregon Athletic Director Rob Mullens, ex-Southern Miss coach Jeff Bower and former Central Michigan coach Herb Deromedi will help select the College Football Playoff participants, the CFP announced Thursday.

They were appointed by the CFP management committee, which is made up of the 10 FBS commissioners and Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick. The new quartet replaces Mike Gould, Pat Haden, Tom Osborne and Mike Tranghese, whose terms have expired. The four new committee members will begin a three-year term this spring.

"We are delighted that Jeff, Lloyd, Herb and Rob are joining the committee," CFP executive director Bill Hancock said in a statement.
