This year's selection committee

For those interested in this kind of thing. Not that it matters much, but I like the fact that this particular season (by all appearances a productive one for the Big 10) there's a Big 10 athletic director on the committee. They're not allowed to discuss their own team(s), but it can't hurt to have him there, can it?

Mike Slive - SEC Commissioner, Chairman

Stan Morrison - Cal-Riverside AD (Big West)
Jeff Hathaway - Connecticut AD (Big East)
Thomas O'Connor - George Mason AD (Colonial)
