Coaches poll to make final ballot public

While they aren't saying when or how, the USA TODAY/ESPN Coaches' Poll has announced that they will release their final regular-season ballot.

The Coaches Poll, a core component of the BCS, has been off-limits to the public for 55 years. Coaches have claimed that the privacy helps them keep an appropriate distance from booster influence (and criticism). It'll be interesting to see if any coaches drop out of the poll as a result of the change.

    It's about time coaches were held accountable for the way they vote. Now, if we could just do the same thing with the Heisman Trophy voting.
