If he can do the job - and he has proven that he can everywhere else - who the hell cares? It is 2015.

I agree, Go..'gate. Ironically, my first reaction when reading Casey's profile was pleasant surprise that Colgate was willing to hire as president a white, male ex-jock, without feeling the need to bring in someone representing a politically correct, favored group! But Casey's credentials speak for themselves, so we must assume that and that only is what got him the job.

Safe assumption. Objectively, he's got the goods.
