  1. Wow there is going to be a lot of egg on the faces of the doom and gloomers - the NCAA will work this out with UND, if Florida State can keep the Seminoles and Illinois can keep the Illinil, they will find a way to accept the Fighting Sioux

    If not hosting is the biggest issues I can live with that - there are some schools that hadn't hosted hosted a play off game in 20 years - does that mean they were on double secret probation?

  2. This is humorous and you've got to admire the Empire's ingenuity for jumping on this. They should offer a $1 off or free popcorn to anyone wearing Fighitng Sioux clothing. On a related note if testimony on the bill is expected on Monday when will the vote take place - This performance will have no impact on the actual issue it just makes great news copy and good for the Empire!

  3. Well at least we can assume that the price of football season tickets isn't going to go up this year. I like to think the games are part of the package - tailgating, getting together with Sioux fans, the marching band, the team walking down tailgate alley, getting back to the campus and supporting the student athletes - but I sure am looking forward to that Big Sky schedule.

  4. I'm going to take the high road here and say they aren't going to expect everyone to repaint their tailgating vehicles. It was upsetting to read that someone on one of the committtees shared that the history of the Fighting Sioux needs to become invisible otherwise it will never go away. I don't think a part of UND's history for more than 60 years should ever disappear.

  5. It looks good for me attending the Final 5 at the Xcel this year. I'm looking for suggestions on an moderately priced hotel that would be close to the Xcel. Is there a specific hotel that UND fans use?

    If I end up going alone are there UND socials a person could attend?

    What about the best way to purchase tickets?

    Thanks in advance.

  6. Just a update on the Sioux Forever Shirts, the version that was at Sheels is not available anymore - UND asked that they stop selling them. There is a Sioux Forever Shirt available at Play it Again Sports, Fargo and Grand Forks or SIouxpride.com Just to clarify the shirts aren't associated with UND and are intended to support the preservation and history of the Sioux name.

  7. I disagree, when the urgency to win takes over everything else you end up with Best Buy situations. Yes we need winning seasons to bring back the bandwagon fans and thus the money, but not at that cost.

    Okay to get this thread back on topic. There is no way they would consider changing the colors - why would they, the colors have nothing to do with team names and logos. Actually the Prairie Rose color (what uninformed call pink) is one thing that makes UND unique and true to the state.

  8. Just want to remind you that SIouxpride.com has a selection of special Sioux shirts including the original Once a Sioux, Always a Sioux design. I am a UND graduate but the site is not affiliated with UND however I am hoping that when/if there are any profits (not there yet) I will be to support UND programs. If you live in Grand Forks or Fargo you can find them at Play It Again Sports. Larger selection is in Grand Forks.

  9. I'm thinking the Sioux should be able to light it up against the pourous USD defense - remember even though they beat the gophers they gave up 38 points to them. This is a winnable road game - let's go Sioux.

  10. Okay but how about city leagues for men, women, co-ed and kids headquartered in The Ralph and every team has Fighting Sioux in the name? Fighting Sioux Blue, West Side Fighingig Sioux, Fighting Sioux I, II, III etc. This is a little tongue in cheek but it would be a way to keep the name in the community and for The Ralph to continue to be the Home of the Fighting Sioux.

    UND would have to give permission for the use of the name however.
