Isn't this the guy who Turd wanted?

Isn't Dr. Gold the guy Turd "piece of shit backstabber" Alberts wanted for the prez position? If so, HAHA take that, Turd motherfucker.
Mike'L Severe said Turd wanted Gold. I also saw 2 different people say Turd hated Gold from his UNO days, and that the main reason Turd left was that the guy he wanted for president didn't make the shortlist. So IDK. Would be interested to hear more if any of our insdehers can add context.

As long as the douche waffle leaker doesn’t immediately get it out on Discord I would love to hear it.

Has the looks of a guy who can give someone a stern talking to. Also looks like a guy who was probably pushed into a locker or two back in the day. I'm N.

If I remember correctly he seemed like the normal awkward engineer type. Probably won't be shooting the shit with HCMR or riding around the stadium on a motorcycle. What's he's done at UNMC is very Impressive though.

I’m guessing the best case scenario for us as fans is that we don’t hear anything about him. The only time we should hear from him is when they do those stupid radio shows on game days that nobody actually cares about.

He's more impressive than our actual chancellor. I think the new one has a short contract. Could see Gold taking over his job in a couple years.

The info I heard from my source in the department is that Turd expected Gold to be the next president. Whether or not that’s related to his move to A&M, I have no idea.

Well, nice to see it takes something major to happen to get them to pull their heads out of their ass and get something done.
Hard to argue Turd’s departure didn’t have something to do with the delay. But I believe this is the fastest a university president has been hired out of the last several.

Has me thinking that argument is low hanging fruit. Turd just wanted to build big things and be left alone for a bit before getting a national level leadership position.

Ya it’s becoming more and more clear that leadership was not the boogie man it was made out to be. Turd allowed some of that already present public sentiment to shield him from some of the blame of his departure (it should have been entirely on him)

How the fuck did we go from leadership issues to two pretty awesome hires in 24 hours
Because it’s easy for people to lazily lob stones at leadership without attempting to understand the nuances and complexities of higher ed admin. Just say “I don’t know what the hell they’re doing up there…they need a top to bottom change” and people will grunt along in agreement. The fact is that like them or not, the university system’s leadership moved effectively here
