USC Notes: Addition By Subtraction For CFP

College Football Playoff executive director Bill Hancock will retire when his contract expires Feb. 1, 2025. Hancock has been the director of the CFP or BCS since 2009.

REACTION: Good riddance. This guy constantly railed against a playoff when he was executive director of the BCS and then did a complete about face to work for the CFP.

“College football has the best regular season of any sport, and the lack of a playoff is one big reason why,” Hancock wrote in 2010.

And then after the College Football Playoff was created, Hancock said this in 2013.

“The event is very simple — the top 4 teams will play in a semifinal … Let’s settle it on the field once and for all.”

Amazing gall.

  • Former USC assistant coach Mike Riley will be part of the Oregon State 2023 Athletics Hall of Fame class. As I’ve said before, USC hasn’t inducted a Hall of Fame class since 2018.
  • Former USC midfielder Savannah DeMelo has been named to the U.S soccer team for the Women’s World Cup. Ashleigh Plumptre has been named to the Nigerian team.
  • USC women’s basketball will play Ohio State at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Nov. 6.

  1. Scott, do you think what Hancock said over 10 years ago is worth rehashing? This is the type of reporting that keeps you at the top of the “Razzie” list….Feel proud!

      3. This is damning information. According to the Durham Report, President Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan, then-Vice President Joe Biden, former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and the infamous former Director of the FBI James Comey were briefed in August 2016 about the plan by Hillary Clinton and the DNC to create a false narrative linking President Trump to Russia.

        The FBI knew the Steele dossier was a sack of lies, and yet they still pushed false allegations in the nefarious FISA warrant applications against Carter Page. They made it a point to try to crush Trump and those around him. It was a purely political, banana republic effort to change the course of a presidential election and presidency.

        Many key Durham report findings were already disclosed thanks to Judicial Watch FOIA investigations and litigation.

        Durham let down the American people with few and failed prosecutions. Never in American history has so much government corruption faced so little accountability. Let me be clear, the FBI and Justice Department – and their political masters in the Obama White House – are responsible for the worst government corruption in American history. President Trump is a crime victim who was targeted by a seditious conspiracy by Obama, Biden, Clinton and their Deep State allies.

Legitimate lawsuits are not allowed to penetrate the system past summary judgement, repub committees are moving at a snail’s pace. American institutions designed to check and balance the power of the presidency are AWOL.

  3. The football playoffs are continuing for two more seasons with the Clay Helton of football playoffs. (That’s the subject of the blog right?)
    In all of the responses neither Trump not Biden has offered a remedy for the situation. According to Gabby (take a number) the fact that Scott mentioned what the director of the bowl championship series said against playoffs before he became the chairman of the playoffs isn’t relevant.
    IMHO it speaks volumes to the guy’s priorities. If the playoffs made college football bad, then he’s self predicted the doom of the playoffs. Again it’s my opinion that the BCS was the worst system for choosing a champion. It took opinions of sports writers and totally unbiased coaches and a computer to pick a winner. Now teams have to win on the field.

    1. In the 2003 season, the BCS system failed when the final BCS standings ranked USC at No. 3 while the two human polls in the system had ranked USC at No. 1. As a result, USC did not play in the BCS’ designated national championship game.

      USC went on to decisively defeat No. 4 ranked Michigan in the Rose Bowl, while No. 2 LSU (who had lost to Florida earlier in the season) defeated No. 1 Oklahoma (who had lost the Big 12 championship game to Kansas State) in a national title game. As a result, the AP Poll kept USC at No. 1 while the Coaches Poll was contractually obligated to select the winner of the BCS game as the No. 1 team. The resulting split national title was the very problem that the BCS was created to solve, and has been widely considered an embarrassment.

      In 2004, three teams finish undefeated, USC, Auburn, and Utah. With a blowout win over Oklahoma in the title game there wasn’t much doubt about who the best team was that year
