UNDBIZ

I just showed you a green and white star. Looks fine. Those other names are so bad I'm not going to spend any time trying to find a workable logo for them.

Eff em.

I'm not trying to argue in favor of those names, as I don't like them, but have you looked at the Sioux logo recently? Not much green there, mostly brown, black, and white. I guess I wouldn't have a problem with a primarily silver star (I wouldn't have a problem with the color that is, I'd be somewhat disappointed in the name), if that was the choice.

The Ben Brien Sioux logo has red, green, yellow, black, white, and brown in it.

He's the only one that appears to care that they're losing.

So not quite the same level of legal backing as ladybugs for state insect then..... Edit: An agreed-upon, single, official state nickname would be found here: http://www.legis.nd.gov/cencode/t54c02.pdf?20150610141556 ...... if it existed.

What do you believe to be the official nickname of the state? Please be prepared to cite the section of code. I'm actually curious what it truly is.

The post you originally took issue with said it's an official nickname.....

If you have either, see a medical professional immediately.

Used by the state in an official capacity.

It's a nickname adopted by the state. Thus.... official.

No, just a child throwing a tantrum.

No nickname isn't a permanent option.

To the "consultants" involved in this process....

What happened to badlanders? It wasn't my favorite, but it certainly deserves a place above pride, spirit, and green hawks.

That won't happen until/unless dilorenzo leaves too.

We had one graduate, one suffered a career-ending injury, and one who is a plodding LB. Now we have one FBS transfer and a few freshmen (two of whom the coaches see playing other positions). We're apparently struggling to attract another high-quality transfer, thus..... we need a warm body at least to alleviate depth concerns. If the depth player also has potential at CB, all the better, IMO.

They moved him to CB? Well that's another position of need if he doesn't work out as a RB. Regardless, we need some warm bodies at the RB position this season.

He drives and then passes the ball to an open person when the defense crashes?? I don't think he has any place in our offense.....

Agreed. He's pretty much in charge now isn't he? Apparently the faculty and students aren't too impressed with him.

Average age is about 61 and average term is 7 years. Kelley is 70 and has been Pres for 7 years. Retiring seems to be what everybody (students, faculty, siouxsports.com) wants him to do. New President will start with clean slate and won't be blamed for picking the new name, seems like a good deal. I feel bad for him, as he'll be remembered as the President that removed the name (even though it wasn't really his fault), however, it is time for a regime change so UND can move onward and upward.

Careful, you're nearing gfhockey stage as a typist.

Any of the freshmen D capable at forward?

3 years eligibility?
