I love the idea of "their events" taking place in a building full of Blackhawk logos, tack on the chant of "Lets go Hawks" being heard in Chicago before, during, and after UND arrives should make for some interesting chatter.

Average attendance: 2015: NMSU 17,486 Idaho 11,653 8 FCS schools averaged more than these two and DII Grand Valley St averaged more than Idaho 2014: NMSU 12,269 Idaho 12,886 12 FCS schools averaged more than these two 2013: NMSU 16,050 Idaho 14,744 9 FCS schools averaged more than these two and DII Tuskegee averaged more than Idaho 2012: NMSU 14,247 Idaho 12,582 15 FCS schools averaged more than these two FBS Indy isn't the answer for either of these schools.

Use it as a loop hole, we are after all the Fighting HAWKS!

Say UND makes the Frozen Four, could they use the Blackhawk logo jerseys from the 1980's as throwbacks? Kinda how UND puts out old Sioux logos in the Dacotah Legacy Collection.

If this is fastest to slowest I can't wait to see more of Bollant in action. I thought Santiago was fast and now we have someone faster, nice to have speed on both sides of the ball.

Lets hope so. I feel sorry for the girls especially those that could end up in the olympics, but women's hockey was never going to be a big money maker and attendance for it is brutal. Title IX is going to be the key to remove it.

I agree, or play it on ABC stations across ND so the whole state can see more UND football. NDSU has NBC ND, UND can have ABC ND.

That he does, however the men's basketball team has a problem that needs to be addressed, extension or new coach. money will be a playmaker in that decision.

Or to the men's basketball program.

Fargodome is about 3,000 bigger than the Kibbie Dome I guess it won't go well either unless you get the citizens of Fargo to pay for a new (FBS) quality dome, and no it won't happen.

Isn't this the argument that Bison fans say UND fans were telling them when they decided to move up to DI? NDSU proved those people wrong with a kick butt transition and now 5 championships in a row, what says UND can't be successful in the FBS? Not large enough stadium see Idaho, and cash poor.....how is the NDSU budget cuts coming along?

Has there been any talk of more changes to the FBS either by expanding playoffs for the G5 teams, getting rid of bowl games, or is it just talk of reserection of the WAC? FBS isn't attractive when 5-7 teams are playing bowl games. Playoffs is what we need to have more fan support especially those who cheer for teams not in the p5.

I did, was it this by ND1SUfan: or Gothmog: This is about UND and the FBS, go start your own NDSU and the FBS on BV and let me know how many UND fans give their two cents about it.

If their only agenda is to bait us UND fans and derail threads, then the mods needs to start banning them.

And it's only a matter of time before Bison trolls come on a rivals board and pump their chest about their football team.

NHL and the olympics pretty big. FCS football is a laughing stock to Alabama, Ohio State and big name FBS schools.

Damn iPhones

What hurts more the fact that Carson Wentz played at UND and SDSU or they sold NDSU hats at a hockey tournament. Yes it goes both ways but we are more known nationally in the hockey world where NDSU is still mocked as a DII team among football fans across the nation.

What's humorous is the complete boasting of Wentz, when he hasn't played one single snap in the NFL. What becomes of him if he flops with the Eagles and becomes Ryan Leaf 2.0? The media is making him like the next Tom Brady, guess we will find out this fall, if the Eagles do start him over Bradford.

No, you did.

If UND, SDSU, Montana won 5 NC in a row I am sure we all would be a household name with ESPN, it's a run that is impressive. ESPN loves winners and I guarantee you go into a championship slump like you did from 1991-2010 ESPN will forget about you and will concentrate on the current champ.

More like if there was no cooling off period, and a bogus state law we would be roughly 5 years into a new name and logo, and this forum would be a lot more quiet.

Take Carson Wentz out of the equation and your 5 in a row and ESPN has no clue who you are. If they and others did our logos and names wouldn't be mixed up all the time. Prior to 2011 your football team meant nothing outside of ND and western Minnesota.

I agree, when you see every retail store from Scheels to Target selling the new logo not only in Grand Forks but in Fargo, Bismarck, Crookston and everywhere in between more people will embrase it and it will become more of a household name every year its all over the place.
