My memory isn’t what it used to be, but I think Gohmert did nominate someone else for speaker.

What his ultimate vote was I can’t recall.

Gohmert probably should have run against Cornyn

He voted for someone who wasn't running for Speaker (only Bohner and Pelois were), in fact who isn't even in the House this session. It was a meaningless symbolic vote.

What Lou Gohmert didn't do was step up and run for Speaker himself. No fun in that job. Better to make his safe, symbolic and meaningless votes. He gets cheered for that.
