College Football Playoff selection chairman Jeff Long steps down

Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long will not serve a third year as chairman of the College Football Playoff selection committee.

CFP executive director Bill Hancock confirmed the decision Tuesday morning. Long will remain as part of the 13-member committee.

"We didn't intend for him to be (the chairman) more than two years," Hancock said. "Two years is enough. He did a great job. It's now time for somebody else to take over."

Hancock said the committee has not decided on a new chairman.
