  1. Hawk was known as a loose cannon. He always had good gas prices at Hawk's Pit Stop and his store was a good place for a 17 year old to buy beer.
  2. If I am the coach I don't even mention it. Guys should tackle like they normally do. If you try and change your style or game it usually leads to missed tackles and big plays.
  3. That will happen to any defense that only gets 3 downs off at a time the whole second half.
  4. In the 2nd half we had 8 possessions and ran 27 plays.....that is a recipe for us getting 35 hung on us.....in a half
  5. What spot? Will we have a quorum to discuss %gobc business on the record?
  6. What is things no one says^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  7. This^^^^^^^^ should have happened when it was down to about a dozen. Probably wouldn't be stuck with choosing from the pile that is left if some concepts had been laid out.

    All aboard

    Well yeah. After the search committee(aka Good Old Boys Club) submitted their list of approved candidates.....hint, there was only 1.
  10. How sure? With the incompetence and lack of leadership during this fiasco you actually think this was done?
  11. Not to mention a State champion wrestler. Might not be the biggest guy on NDSU by size and weight but probably in the top 5 of guys not to mess with. This is a non-story unless the fan receives some sort of punishment. Morlock showed incredible restraint.
  12. Just reading the last few pages of this thread is an absolute confirmation that the process failed and now we are forced to settle for a name that will be far less than The University of North Dakota deserves. Obviously Nodaks and Sundogs are embarrassingly terrible. Roughriders will probably be the "winner" when it is all said and done and it is stale at best. North Stars is far and away the best name left but it is the name of a neighboring state....Stars would have been better. May vote for this with hopes that over time the fans will unofficially shorten it. Similar to how both Fighting Sioux and Sioux have been used over the years. Fighting Hawks has some logo potential but would have again been better selection if it was a color such as white or green, just Hawks, or a different descriptive term like Prairie or Night or went with Peregrines or Prairie Falcons...currently my second choice. Many better selections were eliminated during the process which is unfortunate. I actually like The University of North Dakota Kelly which kind of organically came up in a thread the other day. Allows quite a bit of latitude for a logo much like the Wild.
  13. Hell of an entertaining game to watch! Bison D needs a little work but I think that was expected. Had the over and Montana +14.5 so the Grizz win was icing on the cake although it would have been better if I had just picked them outright. I get UND fans being happy about the result but those were probably 2 teams we aren't going to beat this year.
  14. Hey numbnuts. I was in favor of a new nickname from the start and will vote for 1 of these remaining even though the selection ain't great. Which name will you be vot....oh nevermind. Like I said you really struggle in understanding what you read. Might want to get that checked out, they may have pills for that.
  15. Really? Again I am sure you are able to read and write. It is just the comprehension and understanding of what you read where you seem to struggle.
  16. I have no problem with the voting process.....the issue is with a lack of leadership. If you decide to remove North Dakota from consideration which should have been done at the start of this process what is stopping you from narrowing it down further and getting rid of truly terrible names like Sundogs and Nodaks. Just say "after conferring with our marketing and branding experts we have decided to remove these selections"
  17. Incompetent. Even now he can't make a decision and narrow it down to a couple names or remove a couple names which would seem to indicate they have still not researched a branding and marketing strategy for whatever the name ends up being. You can't even make it up.
  18. Obviously UND needs to follow suit and do this for all sports as well. For now the fact they are doing this for women's hockey instead of women's volleyball and/or women's basketball is completely asinine.
  19. HEY! I think you stumbled onto something. UND Kelly. Just like the Stanford Cardinal. We can then pick anything we want for a mascot and logo. Give me the night to think about this. Nice Work Benny!
  20. I realize you are an interested observer(i.e., non-alum, non-student, non-stakeholder, non-faculty) in UND's Name and as such you should do a little less typing and a lot more reading and observing. Thank you now.
