According to Category 1a. on page 11 of the Settlement Agreement banners can stay. I agree that the settlement, which obviously wasn't what the Sioux fans wanted, in the end did grant some leverage to keep some things intact.

I liked Badlanders. In one of these names threads I started a list of names I didn't want UND to adopt, fish, weather phenomenon, etc.. as the new nickname. Maybe we should start with a list of attributes that we want for the new name. Sorry DamStrait, I'm one of those who thinks we need to have one. It's hard to market "nothing".

Oh, you mean "control what is yours to control"!

Dave, your scenarios are primarily because you don't want a new nickname logo and want to people to remember them as the Fighting Sioux, have fans continue to wear the Sioux gear and continue to cheer for the Sioux. That may be exactly why the language transition to a new nickname and logo was put into the settlement. The NCAA wants the Fighting Sioux name gone. The only way to really do that is for UND to transition to a new nickname.

Seeing red? Does it make sense to field football at EWU?

The Mighty Dartmouth umm, ahhh, ummm. Green something.

Oops. Done.

I could see that one coming.

Nah, go for the Goring model..

Did you mean on Taylor's terms??

Give this a go.... Sioux Shop. Cheers.

UND athletics: So far, so good

Pretty sharp. Nice work.

Ed board member breaks down UND nickname controversy I like Grant Shaft, although I still can't figure out how he got the MVW in the 1977 City Wrestling Championships, but is this really the Board's business? Should they meeting with conference officials?

Grant Shaft coming up shortly on KNOX. Streaming link on the site.

Welcome to America in the 21st century.

I wonder how much contact there was between the board, Kelley, Faison, coaches, REA, and the stakeholders in this sudden decision. For it to be an 8-0 vote, there must have been a lot of discussion (cover) for the board members to vote to end the use of the Sioux name. I listed to Grant Shaft on KNOX this week and he talked alot about the Summit. I wouldn't think that a SBoHE board member would have a great deal of contact with a conference official. That would fall more with Kelley and Faison.

Coaches adapt

Read pages 5, 6 and 12 for most of the information in regards to REA. Settlement Agreement

Ditto.
