NEW YORK (AP) – BCS executive director Bill Hancock says he doubts “financial inducements,” such as the one Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is considering, will not lead to a major college football playoff.
Cuban told ESPNDallas.com on Wednesday that he was “actively interested but in the exploratory stage” of trying to bankroll a 12- or 16-team playoff that would replace the controversial Bowl Championship Series.
Hancock responded to Cuban’s comments in an e-mail to the AP on Thursday, saying, “Given how much support our current system has among university presidents, athletics directors, coaches and athletes, I don’t think any amount of financial inducement will make people abandon” the BCS.
