Phil Jackson, the Wonder Years

Is this game on TV or should I chew on tin foil or drive pieces of wood under my fingernails would be better questions.

Sioux 24 SUU 17 Go Sioux!!!

The spelling of defense varies from where you come. Many Canadians spell it "defence" and with all of the hockey types in this forum, you can never tell.

I hope the contracts were signed in blue ink. If not, some in this forum may still have a problem with it. Kid picking a scab? Where do you come up with this stuff?

I believe that we would win in court, but I'm skeptical that it will ever get there. I think the NCAA has too much to lose and won't want to see it get there and therefore will try to settle. They don't have a solid foundation for their edict and they don't want their dirty laundry aired in court. My reason for breaking hockey out in this negotiation exercise is the cost of changing all of the logos throughout the Ralph and the powers that be won't allow hockey to change during a negotiation. The football team already has the interlocking ND on the helmet and just a small logo on the front of the jersey. I'm not advocating that football make the change, this is purely a speculative "what could you stomach" exercise. Additionally, I don't look down at the other sports as second-class sports. You can probably tell by my past posts, that I'm not a "hockey only" person. I have an interest in just about all things UND. My vote is that UND wins in court and we keep the Sioux name and logo.

If the two sides came to an agreement so that both sides could come away with something, what would be the most that you would be willing to give up? A thought crossed my mind today. Hey, I can have one every once and a while. What if UND was able to retain the name for hockey, thus allowing the Ralph to not have to make any changes at all? All other sports would have to change or just be known as North Dakota with an interlocking "ND" on the uniforms. Since some folks think "Force of the North" is more than just a slogan, maybe that would be the name for all UND sports with the exception of hockey.

Not a good week for the Great West. SDSU lost to WIU UCD lost to WWU Cal Poly lost to Texas State SUU lost to Montana while the Bison were idle

I see your smirk and raise you a wink and a nod.

Great job Appy! This is historical. This has to be a huge embarrassment to Michigan. Both for the team and for the fans.

I wonder what the "connection" is between two parking ramps and the athletic master plan. Is part of a plan for the Sioux to move back outdoors into a renovated Memorial Stadium? Interesting.

He's in mine. He's one of the best presidents UND has ever had.

How much has Greg Weisenstein's stock risen in the past month to be UND's new president? He was the one of the three finalists for the FGCU job and ended up being one of two finalists when the former OSU president pulled out at the last minute. Does anyone have a positive or negative vibe on Weisenstein?

UND press release on the Washington Monthly ranking.

If this is the case why does UND have more Native American students than any other university around. As far as the honoring of the Sioux name is concerned, my thought has always been that it is more to honor the Sioux warriors of the past. They were proud people through some of the most adverse times. I enjoy reading about the Sioux history and that is mainly because UND has the Sioux nickname and because I took classes in the Indian Studies program at UND. If the Sioux leaders of today want their heritage forgotten, they are going about it the right way. Even though Wovoka warned against the evils of the white man, he also advocated educating the Sioux young. Isn't that part of what UND is trying to do with all of the IS and INMED programs?

My wife and I collect books and are in the process of building somewhat of a home library. We have a set of 1929 encyclopedias which are great to page through. This is what those encyclopedias had to say about UND back then... Since this is UND's 125th anniversary, I thought this was a nice place to post this.

National University Rankings. UND ranks #117 out of 242 school in this magazine's rankings. USD ranked a little better at 112. The methodology for the rankings include social mobility, research and service.

From Grand Forks Life, the Photo on the Green will be featured on tomorrow's Good Morning America.

From those who went to the game, how was the game day atmosphere? How did the Canad play into the situation? How did the parking fees work out? Shuttle system? Tailgating fees?

Game Day!!!!! Unfortunately, I will be on the road and will not be able to hear/see the game. Go Sioux!!!!!

I use Firefox for my browser and like when the websites have a logo or icon on their tab and in the address bar. Can you put the new logo there also? Currently SiouxSports.com has the geometric symbol on the tab.
