How bout a hawk holding a tomahawk!!

Is it too soon to be annoyed by comments like this?

They should come back and say that they don't want to pay their tuition because is was only kid of a promise that they would pay it.

If you are going to compare teams, might as well pick the same time frame I used. 2007-2015. Vikings have 18 more wins, and 3 more division titles. AP has won rookie of the year and the MVP. So by comparison, since 2007, TheAP and the Vikings have been better than Johnson and the Lions.

That same Lions team that went 54-90 (which includes an 0-16 season), zero division titles, and zero playoff wins during Megatrons time there. Yep, those Lions!

There are two of them now? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Playing for the Lions is certainly one of them!!

I guess Bison fans will have to forgive us UND fans for not sharing in the enthusiasm to the level they are about Carson Wentz going in the first round. After 8 FBS wins (including teams in both the Big 10, and Big 12), 5 MVFC titles, and 5 straight National Championships (not to mention to ESPN Gameday appearances and an ESPN roadshow) .....I guess we are all a little tired of hearing about all the Bison's success. I respect their program. They have accomplished what no other FCS team has or will ever do again. Having a former QB now being talked about as going in the top 10 of the NFL draft is just one more thing. Obviously we are jealous of the success. So is every team/player/coach/player/fan in the FCS. But this is just one more thing that we have to hear Bison fans talking about as they puff their chests out.

I really don't think there are as many UND fans converting to Bison football fans in GF as you may think. Sure there might be a coupe, but I think that the Bison fans/alums/etc that have been in GF for years are just being "extra proud" of thier team snd wearing their Championship gear around town to rub it in the faces of their rival. If you were a UND fan living in Fargo and UND football had won 5 national Championships in a row. I think you would make an extra effort to make sure you wear your UND Championship gear a little more than usual. I do agree that NDSU has gained more of the uncommited fans that have no loyalty to either university. But I highly doubt there is a large number of UND fans that decided to start cheering for their rival.

UND is now the Fighting Hawks. Not just the Hawks. Does a design firm run with that and make that a unique trait of a new logo? Notre Dame is not just a fat irish guy. They are the Fighting Irish and their logo depicts that. Does UND want a hawk logo that depicts an actual "fighing hawk"? Maybe that can make our logo stand out from all the rest of the other bird logos out there. That being said, If they went that route, I think we would end up with something like these.....

Definitely appreciate you and your firm seeking out the message board of UND fans to hear what the fanbase is saying. Says a lot about how your firm wants to develop a logo and a brand that not just the administration will like, but the fans will like as well. I think the constant theme that you probably picked up on is we as fans want a logo and brand that we can all take pride in. The name isn't the most unique by any means. But this gives you (or the other developers) a great opportunity and challenge to turn a generic name and make it into something truly unique that the fans can rally around. Not an easy task, but that's why you guys get paid the big bucks right!! HA!!

I heard he took off his skate and tried to stab him. Only guy to ever do that!!

With all the potential change happening with the P5 the next few years, I think UND will be staying put in the Big Sky. They are in much better shape for becoming a "second tier" conference than the MVFC is.

I don't think the NCAA is going to come back at tell UND that their bird logo can't have feathers. Now, if UND comes up with a logo with a bird with a headress similar to the old Sioux logo, then they may have ground to stand on.

Wait...are you implying that Gopher players aren't innocent little choir boys that are victims of these unprovoked attacks and that they may actually be instigating these incidents?!! How dare you!!!

Seeding the top 16 teams is the right thing to do. I agree with the statement that says the 9 seed is treated the same as the 24 seed. If you are a top 16 seed in the country, you deserve to host a playoff game no matter how small your stadium or school is. Seeding the top 16 teams will also help solve the problem with regionalization. Now sure, they can always drop down a team a spot to ensure they play close to home, but it it would not be as easy.

Ok, well I saw that article. SiouxVolley is implying that these changes are for sure going into affect.

link?

Gotta blame something. Can't be the coaches or the players fault!!

Ah yess. That's right. I am mistaken. NCHC will keep the 5x5. I do like the 3x3 format because it lowers the numbers of shootouts that occur. This was the reasoning for the NHL to change to it. Whether that was the reason for the NCHC, who knows. Definitely like it.

My theory is the NCHC is experimenting with the 3x3 because they want to go to it full time in the future (eliminating the 5x5 overtime). The NCHC makes a pretty good effort to duplicate the rules and the play of the NHL so it is more attractive to NHL recruits to attend NCHC schools. By bet is the 3x3 OT will be the standard moving forward next year or the year after in the NCHC.

Gotta hand it to NDSU fans. They are loyal. Even defending shady spending by their President.

How many bird logos for college (or any teams for that matter) have this type of logo with the bird looking straight on. A quick google search will tell you that the majority of logos of the head facing to the left or right, or the full body of the bird (KU Jayhawks). THIS is what is needed to differentiate from all the other bird logos out there. I like it!

Candidates to be interviewed. http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/3928955-breaking-15-candidates-be-interviewed-und-president-post

The grey helmets with the green interlocking ND and the stripe down the middle are sharp. I would love to see UND go back to exactly that style!!
