Wow good to see Ag Tech fans glued to the TV for a division 1 championship. As far as I'm concerned they could win infinite amount of div 1AA championships and I wouldn't miss a wink the only stage worth watching in bisonville is at the Northern.
Funny, but you are going to catch a load of crap for that 1AA nonsense.

Guess I should have said CHILD pornography. I was trying to be kind.
Well thank you, I had/have no idea what you are referring to.

I think the pornography arrests at UND are much worse that the fans yelling Sioux.
Porn is illegal? uh-oh

So, UND fans yelling Sioux at a sporting event embarrasses state more than NDSU Bison Athletes stealing from a local best buy or their students' voter registration fraud scandal.
How's the saying go? "They've suffered enough"

They changed their nickname 15 years ago. Fighting Hawks is not even a year old, everyone always says that it takes time for wounds to heal and for most alumni/fans, it will take a long time.
Not to mention we don't even have a logo yet.

That seems logical, However, this championship could actually harm football recruiting in the long run, if it simply adds to the growing perception that hockey is the only sport that matters at UND and all other sports, especially football, are second-class.
So you are agreeing that his statement seems logical, then arguing against it with a completely illogical view. Weak trolling.

Do you ever get anything correct? He is getting $500K over 5 years to go back to the area he was raised, to a school willing to throw a lot of money at Nagy and their BB program in the hopes of building themselves into another Butler. Nagy is 49 and will be turning 50 soon. He has been at SDSU for 21 years. He either moves now or never, especially if he ever wants a major conference job (see Illinois).
Jones? Funny. Walthall? Funny. Neither will sniff the job.
Oh, and that is 3 NCAA dances SDSU (just like NDSU) have been to. SDSU have what some are deeming a top 25 NCAA player on the roster for the next 3 years http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/stars-college-basketball-2016-2017/story?id=38153309. I'm pretty sure whoever we bring in SDSU's Men will be just fine.
And maybe you should read better. I don't see a lot of crying going on over at the SDSU board. Some shock to start but I see more excitement and anticipation than anything else. But, you are the master at taking one post from a message board and turning it into your own facts.
Oh, for good measure, Since you are such a Summit hater. USD won the Women's WNIT this year and SDSU were seconds away (for the 2nd time in school history) from making the Women's Sweet 16. Next season SDSU's Women will likely start the season ranked in the Top 25 and will still be a year away from what many think will be the best team in SDSU Women's history. Better than the 2009 version that was ranked 15th in the country. Things are going pretty well for the 3 other "Dakota" schools in what you deem the Slummit. How are things in the Big Sky? Still planning on going FBS? Funny stuff.
*yawn* No one cares, especially not today. Go to bisonville to stroke your conference.

I went to a ND/UMN game a couple years ago. There weren't thousands of Irish fans there or anything but there were plenty. Probably the most "national" fanbase in collegiate athletics.
That may be true of the older generations but seems to be less so among the younger crowd.

I put up the video of the slash and the fight video .
I believe that since the NHL loves the Blackhawks and Duncan Keith is a star player, he won't get the suspension that he deserves.
Should be 5-7 games. That was brutal.

Shows me the obsession you have with NDSU and Wentz himself. Looks like some are still bitter he didn't choose the fighting Hawks as his college of choice. Need to let it go.
Whatever you say little brother

At least they got an all expensed paid trip to San Diego.
UND got to plaÿ a meaningless game no one cared about, throw 40 grand down the toilet, and make their players stay in Grand Forks over spring break. Sounds like IPFW got the better deal.
40 grand? That's nothin...I spend that on a meaningless trip to India.

Oh the butt hurt. Third time in 5 years, had NDSU not upset this team with "no talent" last year (when Daum was red-shirting) it would have been 4 of 5. That's the same team who had so little talent minus Daum that they took down CSU, the #1 seed in the NIT last year, in Ft. Collins. Must have been some good home cooking going on there. Oh, we also have not finished below 2nd in the regular season conference race for the past 5 years. But in your mind the wins in the SL tournament are due to a home court and the referees, OK, call LakesBison, you and he can be buddies.
The "Slummit" is the 11th conference in RPI, 15th in Sagarin. The BSC is 28th and if not for Weber and UM they would be 30 or 31. UND is a low 200 RPI BB team, SDSU 28.
Oh, and to top it off our women are making trip 7 in the past 8 season. They also have a 12 seed while starting all underclass women. We are likely a year or two from making the same type of run we made in 2009. The year our Women were ranked 15th in the AP and almost took down Baylor in the second round, in Texas when they had Griener. But hey, I'm sure their success is also due to home cooking and a home court advantage.
To make it all better for you. NDSU has won 5 national titles in a row in FB. Also, NDSU; as a 12 seed (wonder if they passed the "eye" test) took down Oklahoma in the NCAA tournament. It really has to kill you that the two State schools have had any success.
Call when the BSC moves to FBS. All because the NCAA loves Idaho so much they are going to change the rules to help them out. Funny stuff.
Please don't come here to champion the Bison, we get enough of that already.

Huh... and this whole time we thought he was picking the early start time to screw the fans over. What a weird concept for the UND coach to do what's best for the UND hockey team.
haha, no one thought that...was just hoping to watch the whole game. As long as they win we'll all be happy.

As we inch ever closer to the dawn of a new era at UND, it is increasingly frustrating to read these kinds of comments from what I perceive to be passionate UND fans.
"Sioux," "Fighting Sioux," a drawing…these are just transitory symbols. If your passion starts and stops at these symbols, I hope you get the worst, lamest, gimmicky, cartoonish, caricature of a goofy-looking bird imaginable, because that is what you deserve. (And let's face it, because you are setting the bar so high, and because you refuse to see the logo for what it is, that is EXACTLY what you are going to get.) At some point, y'all can huddle together somewhere and wallow in your collective misery. But for the love of God, not here. Not anymore.
The University of North Dakota is where your passion should start and stop. It is the constant. Still, many have not embraced "Fighting Hawks" (another symbol), and many have predetermined that they are not going to embrace whatever visual representation comes next. With sarcasm and negative energy and vitriol and bile, you treat this entire process as an ongoing insult and a disgrace, and an affront, rather than the necessary transition it became. Yes, you're "stuck" with it. Get over it. It's done. It's bigger than any of us, and all of us.
For UND fans, loving the school's nickname is not an option. Nor is pouring your passion into the yet-to-be-determined logo. Because at the end of the day, what the hell else is anyone cheering for? Drawing your own unofficial logos, making your own unofficial shirts, dismissing artwork that hasn't yet been conceived, criticizing everyone and everything…to what end? You're all coming across as a bunch of petulant brats, acting out because they didn't get their way. Maybe the University doesn't need you as much as you think. And I think there are an increasing number of fans on this site who, though quiet, are tired of the routine.
The logo will be chosen, and many of you will not 'like' it. Not at first, anyway. You might question a line or a brush or a color or a gesture or a this or a that. You may want to hate it altogether. But it's yours and you sure as heck won't be able to do anything about it. So why not bite your lip, put on a smile, embrace it, and buy and wear the hell out of it. Whatever it looks like. Come on here and rave about it. And if you don't love it, then shame on you, because it is merely another symbol of that which you already proclaim to.
Negative nellies, vote me down all you want, but do us all a favor and look inwardly first. Because there is likely something amiss in there; a personal pain or flaw that you are simply projecting here. The University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks are fighting to hang number 8, and they and their fans need your energy.
I am assuming everyone on this forum, minus the trolls, is a die hard UND fan. Equating the lack of "embrace" for the new name to lack of support for the team is ridiculous.
