I have been one to fiercely oppose the change from the Sioux name to the Fighting Hawks. I was disappointed with the process and how everything from the nickname to the logo were handled. I was underwhelmed by the new logo when it was released and still am not thrilled about it. That being said, I'm sick of this crap. I'm fully ready to support the University of North Dakota 'whatever you want to call them's'.

Can't say I'd turn down those direct flights to az and Vegas in the winter -
University of North Dakota Hockey 2016 - 2017 Season

Agreed, was skeptical about Monty but IMO he's definitely proved himself as a really good coach -
Not saying they only did it for the money but a thousand bucks? Say they conservatively sold 500 sweatshirts and hats at $70 and $30. That's very conservatively $50k.

The sane ones will, if we get knocked out in a regional there will still be some crazies questioning Berry's coaching. I completely agree tho, I feel like a lot of pressure is off our guys' shoulders carrying around 16 years without a title. Now the Gophers on the other hand... -
Yup, there probably a lot of injustice in the process but at this point it doesn't realistically matter. The F'Hawks name is meh, the logo is meh but it's what we got. I love the Sioux logo and name but the fight for it ended a long time ago and it seems like some people are showing up a decade or so late to the fight thinking there's a chance. Unfortunately, I think this gives uninformed people optimism that there is a chance they can reverse the nickname decision and continually lets them down when it doesn't happen. PS Yes I'll still be wearing my Fighting Sioux gear at sporting events but I understand that's not the official nickname any longer. Maybe I'll get Hawks gear eventually if they can make something that looks good to me... it won't be the shirt Schaefer was wearing though

Please turn in UND fandom card at The Ralph before 5 today -
Speaking of, when is that Unauthorized documentary coming out? Feel like I haven't heard anything for a while.

I just got this text from an unnamed Gopher hockey player: "I wish I played for UND, we suck so bad"

McFeely is a clown and a terrible writer. Also, he has one of those faces you wanna punch every time you see it.

No, I'd rather have you extrapolate upon your UND hockey is a bunch of Canadians, because it's a terrible take in so many ways.

You're obsessed with blaming this entire thing on the hockey program, which contributes way more to this university than the football program in terms of dollars, national exposure, championships etc. but you want to focus on this logo as an example that they don't care about the school whatsoever. You're enamored with the football vs. hockey crowd which is just getting really old. I feel like I'm talking to a St. Cloud hockey fan with a little brother complex. Here's Berry's quote from the logo reveal. No, it wasn't an impassioned speech like Bubba but they are different people with different personalities. "We've been here 130 years. UND has been called the Nodaks, the Flickertails, the Fighting Sioux and now the Fighting Hawks," Berry said. "Transition and change happen in life and it's about moving forward..."

I heard that too but you're going to get feedback even if it's not "official". Gage and other people are saying that we are way off on the hockey jersey. Instead of taking it as a negative maybe people will start thinking how it could possibly look good on a hockey jersey, I know I did.
-
So you are saying you do question the loyalty/dedication of the men's hockey coach and captain of the hockey team? Classic I do support Gage saying he dislikes the logo on the front of a hockey jersey. He's right and it looks hideous. Maybe that will be a push to either put in on the shoulder or redesign it without the ND behind the logo so we don't look like we're sponsored by an airline.

People on here question the loyalty to UND of a hockey coach and captain that just won us a national championship 2 months ago because of one tweet... Only on siouxsports.com

That's interesting considering he has the worst team
-
Where'd ya get this logo?
-
Care to give us any more info on what direction the logos were going? I'm not a patient person
-
Hold up, you've seen the new logo?!!
-
That's the worst name I ever heard, must get a free bowl of soup with it? Oh it looks good on you though.
