ESPN won’t allow Holtz to vote in poll
Posted on Friday, August 26 @ Eastern Daylight Time Football

The new college football poll being used by the Bowl Championship Series will have to replace four voters on its recently unveiled panel, including former South Carolina coach Lou Holtz.

Holtz, Gerry DiNardo and John Congemi — all ESPN commentators — are not permitted by the network to vote in the Harris Interactive College Football Poll because it is being used by the BCS to determine which teams play for the national championship.



Jason Rash, the son-in-law of Troy coach Larry Blakeney, has withdrawn from the 114-member Harris voter panel after the BCS informed the Sun Belt Conference that he did not meet its voter criteria.

Holtz, who retired as USC’s coach last year, recently signed on as a studio analyst for ESPN. Congemi is a game analyst for regional college football coverage. DiNardo, fired as Indiana coach after last season, will work for ESPN Radio.

The Harris poll is being used by the BCS to replace The Associated Press media poll after the AP asked college football officials to stop using the Top 25 in their formula for picking teams to play in the four major bowls.
