That mindset says an awful lot. Reminds me of a battered spouse...'sure, he beats me, but I'm pretty lucky to be married at all, and I'm afraid to be out on my own.'

What's regional about D1 athletics?

What's regional about licensing goods into the stream of global commerce?

What's regional about having one of the top aerospace programs in the world?

The interlocking ND is not UND's identity. For once, wouldn't you like to walk into a sporting goods store and buy your team's hat without double-checking the back for an embroidered leprechaun?

I found Kelley's "Exceptional" mantra to be a bit much at times, but UND is striving to be more. UND has sought to create an identity.

Fighting Sioux, regional thinking, and being Notre Dame's bitch are in the past.

UND is looking to the future, and I applaud that.

Never in my life as a North Dakota fan in a store hat shopping have i wondered if the hat I was looking at was a Note Dame hat or a Sioux hat. Seriously get glasses or contacts.

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.
