Slive Tabbed As College Football?s Most Influential Person

The folks over at Street & Smith?s Sports Business Journal have ventured to rank the most influential people in college football.? Their top pick is no surprise ? SEC commissioner Mike Slive:

?

?If the ultimate test of influence is getting everyone else to do what you want them to do, Slive is clearly the most influential figure in college football today. A little more than four years after he presented that initial playoff proposal, it came to pass this year. The format, which goes into effect for the 2014 season, looks very much like the model that Slive first presented, with two semifinal games being played in bowl venues, followed by a national championship game a week later.?

?

Others on the list?

* Big Ten commish (and occasional SEC critic) Jim Delany ranks #2 just behind Slive

* John Skipper and Burke Mangus of ESPN rank #3 right above?

* NCAA president Mark Emmert at #4

* Alabama coach Nick Saban comes it at #15, the highest ranking for any coach

* Florida AD Jeremy Foley is #22
