Duluth fans shouldn't be taken seriously unless they are Duluth locals. My high school in suburban MSP sent more kids to UMD than any other college; we referred to it as University of Minnesota - <high school name>. Most of them rooted for UMD when they attended, then reverted back to the Gophers when they moved back to the cities. Now they've gone back to rooting for UMD after the recent success. They'll be off the bandwagon the next time they hit a lull.
