Well, so far, 8 people disagree with you.

But I wonder if there are fans in Marquette telling the Warriors Forever crowd to "get over it"? -

Last sentence: "Regardless, and likely a direct consequence of the university's failure to commission a new 'Warriors' logo, the Native American logos used in the past continue to be seen in excess at every Marquette sporting event. Even current students, who were youngsters when the original decision to change the nickname was announced, continue to chant 'Let's Go Warriors' during men's basketball games." 2005 to 2018 is 13 years. So, does the SF crowd get a few more years? -

I'd say there's a number. Not sure it's significant. But, I do agree with your point. -

This isn't the point. People understand that the name isn't coming back. They just don't like it and are trying to "cope" with it and that is on their own time. -
I'm assuming you mean Maris, right? If so, we have Ryan Anderson doing exactly the same thing.

Hahaha for many it's apparently more than a 6 year process! For others, it seems to be quicker. I'm happy that you've moved on. -

Seats are still full (attendance may be dropping, but it's dropping in all sports in all of the NCAA -- not connect to this debate in any provable fashion), recruits are still coming, enrollments are still happening.... I. DO. NOT. UNDERSTAND. THE. PROBLEM. Sioux Forever people are still buying tickets. Still supporting UND, still buying North Dakota branded gear. -

We've been through this so many times... Contentious battle with the NCAA where Sioux fans were tossed back and forth thinking we had won and ultimately lost, awful process of picking a new name, generic final pick when the criteria stated the need for uniqueness, boring logo. Am I missing any? That's why. Our process seems to have been different than most schools who have gone through the same thing. Most didn't fight the NCAA. EDIT: Sorry, I honestly didn't mean that first sentence to be so prickish sounding haha.
