"CFP Considers Richard M. Clark as Air Force's New Boss"
Richard M. Clark, the superintendent of the Air Force Academy and a former star linebacker, is reportedly the top candidate to become the next executive director of the College Football Playoff (CFP). Clark's extensive leadership experience and strong relationships in Washington, D.C. have impressed CFP officials. He will take over from Bill Hancock as the CFP expands to 12 teams in the 2024 season, with the challenge of negotiating a multi-billion dollar media deal to shape the future of the sport.
