The board of trustees just decided on Steven Currall as the next president. He is currently the provost at SMU. His interview included a lot of talk about the branch campuses, consolidation, and connecting with the community. He's spent a lot of time in his career as a fundraiser and has been part of two $1+ billion dollar campaigns.

Next steps are background checks and being approved by the board of governors next week (3/28).

Surely he has the PHD he says he has.

Curious to see how he will handle athletics. He feels a very strong fit from the academics side. I'm more surprised they didn't go the political route a la Will Weatherford.

Not a big shock. Spoke with someone who sat in on some interviews and he was impressive according to this person.

Funny as heck but pretty sure he didn't get to his current position without his degrees vetted.

SMU has those deep pockets and he knows fundraising. Good attribute, plus he’s knows a thing or two about athletics. Great hire. GO BULLS.  A toast to the future. GO BULLS.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
