I get what you are saying about brand recognition, but if you give you fans more options, you might get more people to buy into the new name and logo change.

Haha, well for me personally. I'm not saying they should replace the current logo, but I think this one would be a solid addition to it (and not because the feather resemble the sioux logo). Also would translate well into a mascot which would be a solid marketing tool. I definitely think UND needs an additional logo at some point. The post office one is neat and clean, so I say add one that is a little more fun and animated. Both could get plenty of use.

Its ok to slam the logo that other people like, but its not ok when people don't like the same logo as you? Solid logic there.

Not positive, but I'm pretty sure they would only get sued if they sold it. Not if they made it themselves. Or made them and gave them to some friends.

Still my favorite. Wish they would find a way to incorporate it in. Would also be able to morph it into a cool mascot if they wanted.

Would love to see the Sioux come in dominant. Its always funny to watch Andy Murray get riled up on the bench.

Yummmmm, Steak! jk Great write up. Thanks for the reading material!

So obviously we lose a beast in Hooker next season, but I am curious what peoples thoughts are on Marlon Stewart? Looks like he cam in from Creighton, so I assume he has some skill. Is he expected to be a pretty key figure next season? We've seen this team put together good wins when Q has an off night, but to have him consistently gone, makes me wonder, who will step up so we don't have a huge drop off next season.

Right, I'm just saying, you never really know if a team got better or worse, as we didn't really see the kid play. I just know there was a whole lot of potential with the kid. Maybe there were some character issues, and I can see how losing some character issues can help a team, but its hard to know what could have been.

Can't know for sure. Could have been big numbers off the bench. Maybe he would have done nothing, but there was certainly a lot of excitement about his experience and potential.

k let me re-word it ... He has been a successful coach. I already said, I'm not a fan of the guy.

Wasn't actually disappointed. Obviously glad the kid is making an impact at the next level. Hard not to think about the potential of this UND team with him on it though.

Very fun, not quite as stressful. haha

As long as it is conclusively a goal, under replay, then I'm good with that. If that happens I may have quit watching hockey though. Frankly it can't get much sweeter, and I'd be scared for my health after that one.

I'm going to go ahead and $ay that everyone in Toronto wa$ "locked out" of the review room by Gary Bettman, who wanted to keep thi$ game intere$ting, a$ it wa$ the only NHL game on la$t night, and a rivalry game, and important in the $tanding$. ... Not that I am one for con$piracy theorie$.

Haha this is so true. Its the matchup that will make or break your weekend. A Gopher/Sioux tournament game usually means the beer and whiskey will be flowing, which can be very good or very bad pending the outcome. If we do play them, I want to win the game with .05 seconds left

Can't help but wonder just how good this team could have been if Wheeler Baker was playing.

Game Day! Time to take control of 2 place Go UND!

I'm not a Bo Pellini fan, but he is certainly a solid coach. You are correct though, he is no Jim Tressel.

Agreed. The business building was garbage when I was there 10 years ago. There were some nice rooms within the building, usually sponsored by different companies, but the building as a whole needs a major overhaul. When I hit that Powerball on Saturday, I'll be happy to make a nice contribution

I guess I though the reason UND was making the move was because NDSU couldn't get it done it football this year. So they want a new school that can Just a joke as well!

solid post

good find. I'm sure if he is a good enough player, the coaches will have some eyes on him. Kind of a bummer to watch Nick last night; one because he could still be in a UND jersey, two because he help beat my MN Wild, in what turned out to be a UND Alumni game. Parise, Toews, Schmaltz all with goals. Pretty sure Toews had a couple assists too.

Watching MN vs IA right now. Fran Mcaffrey is so obnoxios. Makes me feel slightly better about some of Jones's antics.

It really is a nice facility though.
