Three guys in a costume and you suddenly think. Not just reading comprehension.

No. Blaine is a kid. The one being asked about and reported by the Herald was a UND professor. It's so popular the only people that have seen it are Herald reporters.

This is the one the hockey players are tweeting:

What a perfect time to start vetting the names. As I've said before, and I'll say again, at least with Roughriders you had a quasi History & Tradition built in that one could incorporate. Now, we must start anew. And by new, I mean copy all the other Hawk stuff out there. Seattle Seahawks has the "Hawks Nest" and probably 50 others, I'll count down the days til UND uses it.

Reminds me of the High School kids in Devils Lake that showed how popular the name of "Blaze" was going to win...until the administration found out it was being voted on because of its drug reference. The school board took that name off the list real quick. Since UND students are one step above HS, it all makes sense.

Oh man, It's a condom!? That hurts. What were they gonna do next? Tell us next Roughriders was too good looking?

That would have fit perfect with the chat at UND that goes "Give me a C, Give me a O, Give me a N....What's that Spell?,...Condoms. That's that mean? Defense Defense Defense!" They also do the S.E.X....what that mean "Score, Score, Score!"

Brad Schlossman said it was in the high $200,000. "UND spent $200,000 on a new nickname and all I got was this F'Hawkin' t shirt."

Where have you been?!

Hey I'm trying to find positives. It's not easy though.

Well at least we have come to expect the new Fighting Hawks logo to look more like this: Instead of this: But I also expect UND to screw that up too.

Lets Go Fighting Hawks.

Its an phone app. And you have to live in GF to see them.

I see the UND Nazi Hawk logo has already made its way to twitter.

Welcome to UND, Fighting Hawks (I guess ) The question now is how do we differentiate ourselves from the other thirty plus Hawks teams the Fighting Hawks will be playing against.

Good job you figured it out.

From this day on UND is known as the Fighting Hawks.

Like the student at the hockey game this weekend when he yelled lets go hawks. Nobody knew which team he meant.

F'Hawk!

Go to the books website. Enter info posing as a teacher, have answer sheet emailed to you. What?? Accounting homework sucked.

Last time it was announced Sunday night after the polls closed Friday at 11:59. So I'd guess tomorrow sometime.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but here's how UND doesn't get in?: Eastern Washington beats Portland State. EWU is in. Montana beats Montana State. Montana is in. Winner of SSU and NAU. Portland State is already in. .....I'm not sure five teams would get in from the Big Sky. It would be do they choose EWU or UND with identical records. Do they choose UND with the FBS win or EWU with the better conference record? Another reason to cheer for Southern Utah, Montana State, and Portland of course, because otherwise EWU losses could all potentially be against playoff teams (If UNI wins they are probably in...Go Southern Illinois) and the Oregon Ducks.

The nice thing is there is a couple of games being played that can help UND's chances: Portland State over Eastern Washington. Montana State over Montana. To a "lesser extent:" James Madison over Villanova. Maine over New Hampshire.
