I kind of like the smell of Simplot. Crystal Sugar stinks though.

Road trip. Hammond LA is a short 3 hour drive from here and less than half an hour from the in-laws house. Please let it be so.

Harmeson: New president will OK athletic director Kind of like what I said here.

At this point, the two candidates I think most likely to be president are Elbert and Smith. Elbert seems to have done a nice job with the College of Business and Smith with Aerospace.

Thanks for the summary PCM.

Good to see a Big Sky school on the schedule. Hopefully, we can see some more.

With UND's budget at over $11M as a Division II school in the 2006-2007 year, where do you think the budget will be in the 2008-2009 year as Division I school??

Editorial -- UND should begin name transition It seems that former backers of the Sioux name are for speeding up the process now.

The new president won't officially take over until June 2008, but should be named well before that. That being said, I would think the incoming president should be able to take part in the selection of the new AD. UND Presidential Search Committee

Was the WSU offense that bad or is the Sioux defense improving?? From what I've been reading this week, WSU was putting up some pretty big numbers this year offensively.

On to GVSU. Go Sioux!!!!

Thanks for all of the updates. My niece goes to WSU and she would have had a field day with me if they had won.

Thanks.

Hopefully it isn't as bad as it looks.

Even more positive, SIOUX WINNING!!!!

Any news on how severe the injuries are?

Woo-hooo. GO Sioux!!!

Thanks for the update. This computer doesn't seem to want to get audio to work today.

What is going on in the SIOUX game?

I'm back to the no nickname camp. Put "Dakota" on the jerseys, as I previously suggested and the logo can be the interlocking ND. I agree with Dagies. I'm no legal expert either, but it would seem to me using _______ would be okay. They sure couldn't find it hostile or abusive.

The best post on this thread! I'm in favor of continuing NA programs/classes regardless of what happens with the name. UND is in a position to help the Native American people through education that can hopefully solve some of the ills that occur on the reservations. It has been said that "most of the NA people are in favor of the nickname". If you discontinue NA programs and classes, you are not hurting Ron His Horse is Thunder, you are hurting the very people that agree with the nickname and would benefit from these programs. Additionally, as I said in a thread a while back, I thoroughly enjoyed the Indian Studies classes I took at UND.

Would Dakota or Dacotah violate "the Policy"? It would be similar to Illinois maintaining the Illini. The interlocking ND as the logo. Edit: The more I think about it, the NCAA wouldn't go for it.
