REC gets one of their own on the new championship committee.

whats her connection to bama? she was born in alabama and lived there for a few years when she was a kid, so she is a bama fan?

Grew up in Tuscaloosa where her dad was a preacher and he used to take her to Bama games. That's all I've read.

REC controls the SEC due to the fact the HQ's are located in Birmingham.

REC doesn't run shite out of the State of Alabama. Don't act bigger than you are now

Duh

If it ever comes down to Condi's vote and its Bama or Stanford......I'd bet my house on Stanford

Go ahead and look up the nearest U-Haul, just in case.

"Rice has spent time at Cleveland’s training facility before. She’s been a fan of the Browns since she was a little girl growing up in Birmingham, Ala., where she and her father would watch the team’s games on television. Rice went out of her way to speak with Browns running back Trent Richardson, who played at Alabama.

“She told me she was a big fan and she said, ‘Roll Tide,’” Richardson said. “She mentioned my name when she was talking to the team so that was an honor.”

Edit: granted, she has huge ties to Stanford. But I'll gladly take my chances, given that the likelihood of a choice coming down to those two won't be so great.

Not at all.

"She continues to be a supporter of The University of Alabama, as well as an avid fan of Crimson Tide football. In her book, “Condoleezza Rice: A Memoir of My Extraordinary, Ordinary Family and Me,” she spends a couple of chapters on her time in T-Town including stories of attending Bama football games, and the University speakers series where she met the famous politicians of her time.

According to Mark Schlabach, her father had been a coach as a young man. Father and daughter played football in the yard. Even before moving to Tuscaloosa, they listened to Bear Bryant's Alabama teams on the radio. She loves to tell stories of attending recent Bama games, including tossing the coin at Bryant-Denny Stadium for the opening of the huge rivalry game with Tennessee. This past season, Rice even attended the Alabama-LSU game on November 5th and predicted a win for the Tide."
