GeauxSioux

They didn't show anything more than what was posted here? I was hoping that they would have some additional info or renderings of the indoor practice facility.

I keep waiting for this link to become active, so we can see more of these plans.

There was a discussion last week that the new AD would have experience as an AD, hopefully at th DI level.

Let the people speak.. Standing Rock's nickname, supporters speak out

We've had too many losses in a row, when trailing going into the third period. Time to break that streak, NOW!

Can you think of a better job for a 23-year old?

Looking forward to seeing all of the details.

Nice win. Way to go guys. Take it to them tomorrow night. Go Sioux!!!!!

Looking at the Alerus webcam, I see that it is set up for basketball. Who is playing there? If the Betty does become too small for hoops, this isn't a bad set up.

Evidently, UND is recruiting California for softball now... Younan headed to Division I

Hostility and Abuse or Pride and Inspiration?

More on the TAMUK game... UND leads Javs' slate for '08

Maybe the men are finally getting the program going in the right direction. Nice win guys.

UND steps up scholarship campaign When I posted the link to the possible new football stadium last week, I asked the question how does it look. There was a response that it was too open. Now I know why...

Until someone comes up with a better nickname, Nokotas is number one on my list, in the event that a change has to occur. I have also come to agree that merchandise sales would go much better with a nickname than without. It took me a while, but I got there.

I do like PCM's "Nokota" idea, but that would take some educating of the public, which may be difficult marketing-wise as well. That being said "Nokota" does fit very well and someone had mentioned if/when football moves back outside that would be a nice mascot to lead the team out on the field. BTW, DAK, love the avatar. I love geography, maps, aerial photos. Right up my alley.

I'm not sure that I'm fully answering your question regarding marketing, but putting "DAKOTA" on the uniforms and utilizing the interlocking ND for the logo is a start. Marketing is obviously not my strong point, but I would think that a media campaign could be structured around "UND, the University of the Dakotas". Like I said, I'm not a marketing person, but that's a start.

It wasn't who I was thinking, but I figured out who you are talking about.

I find the name Katrina hostile and abusive.

Just when we thought this whole nickname thing couldn't get any more zany.... [url=http://www.tcpalm.com/news/2007/nov/28/tom-dennis-editorials-can-play-vital-role-society/] Tom Dennis: Editorials can play a vital role in society

Nullus.

Only guessing, but it may be this.

I found this picture and discussion over at Grand Forks Life regarding not only the College Hockey Hall of Fame, but the whole complex that was proposed in 2002. The hotel is quite a bit bigger than what was proposed and now there is talk of a second tower at the Canad.

I'll toss another one out there for others to ridicule. University of North Dakota Arrows. Arrows are not strictly a weapon of the Native Americans, so it cannot be pegged as Native American imagery. It is also on the North Dakota State Seal. Only one other college uses the name, Ursuline College in Ohio. You could even add an arrow to the interlocking "ND" I still would prefer "no nickname" and "Dakota" on the uniforms, but as others have said that may not pass muster with the settlement.

Congratulations to the Sioux team and coaches for a fine season. Looking forward to FCS and the Great West next year.
