That's the question on everybody's mind after Tony Furr, crew chief of the No. 41 Jeremy Mayfield Motorsports entry, rescinded earlier comments to FOXSports.com that J.J. Yeley was tabbed for the position.

Speaking on behalf of the team, Shana Mayfield said no decision has been made but Yeley is on the short list.

Mayfield was suspended indefinitely from NASCAR on Saturday after violating the sanctioning body's substance abuse policy.

The team is expected to name an owner of record shortly, as Mayfield is not allowed to be owner of record during his suspension.
