CFP selection committee chairman Boo Corrigan says Michigan's sign-stealing scandal does not impact how the committee viewed the Wolverines in the ranking process.
According to College Football Playoff committee chairman Boo Corrigan, the CFP selection team doesn't see it as their role to address
As the NCAA probe into Michigan enters its third week, Corrigan indicated Tuesday that the committee did not factor in the NCAA investigation when it ranked the Wolverines No. 3 overall“Our job, as we look at it, is to rank the teams and to follow our protocols,” he explained. “As we went through it, that wasn’t part of any of the discussions that occurred during our time together.”
Corrigan continued, explaining that the investigation is an NCAA matter, not one the College Football Playoff committee needs to address. He reiterated the committee's focus was to produce a ranking of the top 25 teams after nine weeks in 2023, an exercise he and the selection team believe had to include the Wolverines.
“We really view it as it's an NCAA issue, not a CFP issue. At this point in time, as we’re looking at this, we want to make sure we get not just the top four teams but the top 25 teams right,” Corrigan said.Jim Harbaugh Press Conference: Wolverines Coach Calls Contract Rescission Report Inaccurate, Says Michigan Will “Cooperate” With NCAA Investigation and “Watch How It Plays Out”
