The shirt isn't the issue. I think the bigger issue is that the support for those shirts are coming from the same people who not too long ago stood in front of Twamley and called for zero tolerance for any logos used and saying they are people, not mascots. Which is of course why I feel zero tolerance rules does more bad than good.

Rotation has been improving. Hughes is getting back to form, Deduno looks to be setting into a spot, Gibson is still solid and Nolasco, despite his high ERA still, has pitched well the last 3 times out. Correia needs to step it up or he will be the next one to be replaced. By June it might be Meyer or Pino who takes his spot. Responded well from losing 3 out of 4 to Cleveland by taking 2 out of 3 from Boston and Detroit with a chance to sweep Seattle tomorrow. Maybe they can get to my goal of 78 wins

List of demands: Skip to last page http://lastrealindians.tumblr.com/post/85876785193/a-list-of-demands-put-forth-by-university-of-north Basically, they are calling for no one to wear the logo.... ever again. And to pick a name by Fall 2014

There is only 1 man for the job. Lets hope he isn't kicking photographers.

I am believing more and more they are going to take a run at banning Fighting Sioux apparel. But as I watched the video again, I realized that what exactly is the plan? Its just a discussion. Kelley is trying to calm some of the waters down b4 graduation more than likely. God I wonder what will happen at graduation if things keep getting worse.

You would certainly hope so.

It appeared to be a Kupchella quote if you looked at parts 1-6.

I think he will make a fine replacement for Phil Crewe

Exactly.

From reading other twitter accounts its looks like its very true, as now some are taking shots at Englestad. The problem of twitter is of course they could just be saying that. However, its been a few hours since I posted that I have not seen any UND statement saying that this is false.

Sounds like UND just threw a gag order at the American Indian Student Service Staff, or at least that is what is being said on twitter.

So I will ask this: What will come of all of this. Honestly (gut feeling).

Here we go: http://www.grandforksherald.com/content/und-students-protest-offensive-shirt-incident-0 "Emmy Scott, former president of the Indian Studies Association, organized the event and said she wants to have the university officially denounce the now-retired Fighting Sioux logo, make racial sensitivity training mandatory for incoming students and ban the Fighting Sioux logo from all academic settings, among other things"

This is going to be a long week... and it is only Tuesday.

Someone put out the names on the UND facebook page too. What did I do? Checked the names in the directory. Every current student in is this directory Guess how many showed up as UND students? maybe 1.

A short time ago, ISA students put out a statement demanding a ZERO TOLERANCE policy put in place.

And he was on record saying he will never tell ANYONE that you cannot wear Sioux stuff. I was at the meeting when he said that. It was the same one saying we will not go back to being flickertails.

Its a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't for UND administration. I really do not know how much they can really do in this case. It isn't a UND sponsored event, these t-shirts were privately funded (unless proven otherwise), and we don't know how many of them actually went to UND. To say its been a pretty bad 4-6 weeks for students/administration is an understatement. The biggest thing I fear in the short term is something being pulled at graduation. Long term: the movement to prevent any Sioux gear to be worn/ or anything Sioux said at games. What I hate however, just because a few morons decide to do it, does not mean ALL UND students are racist.

I know for a fact that these were not the t-shirts in question.

Im shocked no one has taken Ha-Ha yet.

If he keeps falling.. Pats take him.

Its a position of need and they didn't reach for Bridgewater or Carr. I can live with it

Between this and library mismanagement, things are going from bad to worse for UND administration.

I've had enough of Pelfrey.... I want Deduno! If not, bring up Meyer soon, he is starting to tear up AAA. A few more performances like he has (back to back 11K outings) and he might be the replacement

Wouldn't mind that. Could get a really good logo out of that
