On the heels of Alabama's College Football Playoff National Championship Game victory, Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long will not return as the director of the playoff selection committee next season.
ESPN.com's Brett McMurphy reported Tuesday that Long would not keep his post in 2016. Selection committee chairman Bill Hancock confirmed Long's move to Dennis Dodd of CBSSports.com.
Long has been the CFP selection committee chairman since it was first established in October 2013. He was part of a 13-member panel that was used to determine which four teams would compete in college football's newly established College Football Playoff.
