I can't believe the students have been so suckered in by Dr. Kelley and his inoffensive bird mascot. Believe what you want (that logo that'll never happen, that 'hawks' stands as an abbreviation for something else) but when it is Hawks, dear students, Dr. Kelley won. And you, the students, handed it to him.

Scott, reality doesn't matter. They'll be sorely disappointed.

The Sioux were the original plains Roughriders. Why go from truly unique to just another beak? Go Roughriders.

From massively unique to just another beak? The Sioux: the original plains Roughriders. Vote Roughriders.

Brad Schlossman with a sad reality tweet earlier tonight: @SchlossmanGF: After all that time and energy spent trying to find a unique nickname, UND will most likely be the 29th version of a hawk in college sports.

Given what's out there in some social media I'd be interested to find even remotely informed voters. Many seem surprised any of this is happening.

He's on the door of ND Highway Patrol cars also.

OK, I'll admit I chirped an opposing kicker from the north catwalk in Mussman's last home game. I chirped him about "don't push it" and "don't leave the club face open" as UNC lined up for a 30 yard FG to go into halftime. It was quite satisfying to have him kick the ball right at me, ... outside the (his) right post. He "left the club face open". He'd pushed it. The guys around me (including a GF cop) erupted in laughter with me. I got a "gesture" from the kicker.

Chicken dinner. Extra drum stick. Extra breast and wing plus two scoops of 'slaw.

A comparable drop in votes would not surprise me. Additionally, I suspect many of those whose first choice is gone will not vote this time.

Folks, leave our NDSU friends alone. They had a tough night.

Problem: Reddy doesn't belong to Nodak REC of Grand Forks. He belongs to the NRECA. (Blackhawk logo problems all over again.)

But even in his 10/31/15 bracket and his 11/01/15 article he has Montana State in. Heck, he has Northern Iowa in. The sound you just heard was his credibility needle bouncing off zero.

Go to Google. Search "define: SMN". Get: http://www.internetslang.com/SMN-meaning-definition.asp

Are you sure? I load the article and it says "Sun, 11/03/2013". That, and he has Eastern Washington, Montana, Montana State, Northern Arizona coming from the BSC. Uh ... no.

Folks, the NCAA hasn't read their own policy. When it came out it said nicknames involving "race, ethnicity, or national origin" are the issue (I remember it as reno). So, if the NCAA was serious, or to be taken as anything more than arbitrarily and capriciously headhunting some low hanging fruit (see: small Midwestern school with some intense noise making opponents and a too nice hockey arena), Irish, Trojans, Spartans, Vandals, Maccabees, and a host of others would be getting the stink eye also. But, as Mel Brooks said, "It's good to be the king" and in this matter the NCAA is king.

Fighting Hamsters is taken --> mens league softball team from West Fargo. Seriously. And I'm pretty sure they already "Haakenson'd" it.

Correction: Csonk and Mercury ... 2.0

Csonk and Mercury.

That "hawk with parrot feathers" is distracting because it is trying too hard to look like the Blackhawk logo. Plus, no hawk has an eye with that shape (part of trying too hard).

They == your club. ... or are "they" your imaginary friends again?
