Glad the committee has a sense of humor. Can we see the real list now?

He wants to name UND after the Indian Tribe of Spirit Lake in North Dakota. UND Spirit Lakers.

FYP

UND Spirits: Drink Up. Cause beers for wimps. That'd make a great shirt at (formerly known as) Springfest.

Here's one of the definitions of "Force:" Law. unlawful violence threatened or committed against persons or property. Does UND want that association?

UND Thunderhawks brought to you by Thundersticks.

Pretty sad that when this started the SS community knew Force, Spirit, and Sundogs were the favorites to be (some of) the finalists....and here we are.

We can pretty much assume at least one of those three will be one of the final three.

Looks like the new favorites are Hawks, Force, and Spirit among some of the committee members.

Spirit. Pride. and Sundogs. Its like a running joke that needs to end.

I think you summed it up pretty well.

Well he didn't beat the banner.

What's a "proper member of the media"? If Goon counts...

He's not going to Europe. He's not fooling anyone.

Credit Dave for making a guaranteed $10 million in five years.

That's why I said best teams. Gotta weed out the crappy tournament teams, like the big tens autobid.

Haks legacy is he was a good coach. His teams often "overachieved," had good "second half runs," good in NCAA regionals, but always laid eggs in the semifinals.

1-7 against the best teams remaining in college hockey. That's not a very good "best of series" against college hockeys top teams.

If you're not safe in North Dakota you're not safe anywhere.

I'd be very surprised if Game day went to a FCS school 3 years in a row. Not much left to talk about. I don't see it happening. No "NDSU just beat a FBS team again" talk this year. But itd would be cool if it did.

Its not like KG isnt getting paid. By the size of the new house he build a few years ago it appears he gets paid just fine.

Recent history shows you have to be a UND assistant if you ever want to be UNDs head coach.

Welcome to UND Matt Shaw. Hope you do well. You might be UNDs next head coach if history repeats itself.

Or history says the tradition and facilities make it easy to be a coach at UND...or not and you miss a few NCAA tourneys and you're gone....no one knows. Berry doesn't have an unlimited leash.

Brad Berry quote when he became UNDs head coach: " I learned under the best: Dave Hakstol, Dean Blais, Gino Gasparini, Scott Arniel, who learned under Alain Vigneault."
