Totally agree. I think the hockey helmets would look great with this sticker on them. It is odd that they don't have anything on the helmets. Has to be the only college team in the country without them. This would be a great look for both hockey and football (eventually).
The only non-peewee team in the country without!

Here's a little more that I found...no pics yet, though...
The Golden Feather Club was organized on the UND campus in 1956 in an effort to bolster lagging school spirit. The club had it's constitution temporarily revoked in 1970 for harassing several campus sorority houses; however, the club was reinstated and changed it's name to the UND Feathers in 1971 in order to shed a tarnished image. UND was disbanded the Club in 1977 due to financial problems.
The main responsibility of the Golden Feather Club was selecting the University's cheerleading squads, but the club also performed many other activities, including: buying new cheerleading uniforms, presenting a $150 baseball scholarship, awarding the Bill Borovsky Memorial Trophy to the most valuable goalie in the Western Intercollegiate Hockey League (now the WCHA), organizing pep rallies, and routinely traveling to Fargo for basketball games and Minnesota for hockey games. In 1956 the Feathers split the cheerleading squads into freshmen and varsity teams. The club is also credited with creating the "Sammy the Sioux" mascot. The Feathers also organized the King Kold Karnival in 1968.
Could the feathers on the Sammy Sioux logo be them?

So then we can shot arrows at the NCAA from this site?
Your feather might not work on a arrow, looks a little cumbersome.
I see the siouxsports.com on the feather, but there's a lot of feather there, what's the meaning to the rest of it, looks like it might take a book to describe it all?
The golden feather that UND swept under the carpet around 1970 looked pretty simple, but had pages of meaning to it.
I can't even imagine what all this means.
It means nothing. I just made a feather in the style of the Brien logo era, and wrote siouxsports on it. It would be tough to scale down.

The more I see these, the more I like the black jersey with the hem stripes.
Totally agree. I didn't think they were missing something without them, but now that I see it... wow.

I've seen that weird arrowhead before, where is the Sioux head from?
Social media it would appear. I don't think it's a great logo.

I like it but it is hostile and abusive.
Who says that's not a hawk's feather?

Siouxsports DOES have it's own logo. You can see it on your desktop.
That's a logo?

I was thinking that it would be cool for SS.com to have it's own logo. I made a very quick/dirty mockup. Any thoughts?

Anyone know if they'll get rid of the "HOME OF NORTH DAKOTA HOCKEY" at the REA and replace it with "HOME OF THE FIGHTING HAWKS"

No. That would be this. That orange blob is his beard.

I am going to bet that the actual hat looks more like the actual logo than this one does. Remember this is most likely not an actual picture.
Yep. The only difference between the real thing, and the one on the hat is the weird lines going through it, which are most likely poor representations of the separate stitched areas on the hat. Like this

This just in from UNDSports.com:
The University of North Dakota has announced further budget cuts to Fighting Hawks football. The changes include:
-Jerseys will no longer be supplied by UND. Players will be asked to provide their own green t-shirts.
-All but 12 helmets will be auctioned off. Players will take turns wearing the remaining ones.
-Tickets will triple in price. Refunds are not available, and the extra fee will be applied to the ticket holder's credit card.
-Home games will no longer be played at the Alerus Center, but will be moved to Farmer Pete's wheat field, a short 25 mile drive northeast of Grand Forks. Fans will be asked to bring picnic blankets, lawn chairs, or other seating. Directions available here.
-Players will no longer be given free UND apparel.
-The team will be renamed the University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks Presented by Deek's Pizza: Great pizza that won't empty you're wallet.
-Leather footballs will be replaced by smaller foam footballs commonly known as "mini footballs".
We trust that this will not subtract from our fanbase, or the experience at UND football games. Single game tickets are now on sale. Fighting Hawks gear is available at Sioux Shop, the UND Book Store, and other fine retailers in Grand Forks.
