Good thing the PFL rep is from Morehead, it's like an extra OVC vote xsmiley_wix

[Catatonic]

isn't it customary for a representative to recuse himself from discussion and voting for his own school?

I think we know who just locked the #1 seed. 😉

I wonder if that will also help the EIU/ EKU winner out any?

That Marty Scarano is one sly fox. Lets see if he can pull off some 2012 magic and screw Towson to get us in again. :D

Well, the TTU AD and the entire university has proven time and time again that if they know one thing, it's football...(SARCASM)

Hes on it every year! Im more confident than ever UNH is in with a win. I think he rubs off on others, even if hes not in the room when discussing UNH.

It is required. Where the politics come in is that the representative may be involved with discussions about the teams with which his team may be competing (for a seed, the last at-large spot, etc.) In addition, even if he isn't in the room, his presence may still be felt).

Our AD is a Citadel graduate. I wonder if that will be an issue.

I seriously doubt it. It's not like the alma maters of the other committee members would be vetted.
