People keep talking about what a new logo and name for UND should be. I read names like the Fighting Calvary or whatever. However, there is one name that I think would be awesome.
The Dakotans
I know that it is repetitive to say the University of North Dakota Dakotans or North Dakota Dakotans (it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue), but we could get a mascot. He'd be a farmer of scandinavian descent with a pitchfork (or whatever farming utensil anyone could come up with, I don't care.)
The reason I suggest this name is obvious. Dakotans does not just refer to a native american tribal group, but also to the people living in North and South Dakota. I'd like the PC crowd try to get rid of this one since it has native american origin, but has been adopted by the settlers of North and South Dakota over the last 150+ years.
