Dan Radakovich sat on the very first College Football Playoff selection committee.
He was part of the group that made the controversial decision to choose Ohio State over TCU or Baylor as the final team into the 2014 field. He was on the committee in 2016 too, when members kept out Big Ten champion Penn State for the Pac-12’s Washington. And, in his final year on the committee, Radakovich and members selected both Alabama and Georgia instead of a Big Ten team.
Now, years later, as Miami’s athletic director, he is on the other end of the decision.
