Former Michigan coach is a finalist for College Football Playoff committee

According to multiple media reports, former Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr is one of about 6-8 finalists for a spot on the College Football Playoff committee.

Carr was a coach at Michigan for 28 years, and the head coach for 13 seasons. He was 122-40 in his time at the school, winning a national title in 1997. He retired from coaching after 9-4 season in 2007, a season notorious for Michigan's loss to Appalachian State.

Carr would potentially be replacing Mike Tranghese, Tom Osborne, and Mike Gould — whose terms expire in February 2016. Pat Haden's term also technically expires, but he stepped down from the committee before the season.
