IRVING, Texas – Kansas State athletic director Gene Taylor has been added to the college football playoff selection committee, replacing AD Texas Chris Del Conte.
Wednesday’s announcement comes less than a week after Texas and Oklahoma announced they would be leaving the Big 12 to join the SEC.
The 13-member selection committee consists mainly of current sports directors as well as former players and coaches. Each Power 5 conference is represented by an active sports director.
With Texas on the verge of leaving the conference, the Big 12 have named Taylor to replace Del Conte, the CFP said.
Taylor has been the Kansas State Athletic Director since 2017. He served as an AD for a long time at FCS North Dakota State Power Station and was Assistant Director of Athletics at Iowa.
Iowa athletic director Gary Barta will chair the selection committee for a second consecutive season.
