GreenWing Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 How about the University of North Dakota Originals. Honors the states settlers and notates that we are the original university of the state. Inspired by the Oakland athletics, yes I have been drinking. Just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mamba Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 The idea to nickname UND "The North Dakota Originals" was inspired by the Oakland Athletics? The same Athletics who where the Kansas City Athletics before Oakland ... who where the Philadelphia Athletics before Kansas City ... I'm not feeling the same inspiration.

GreenWing Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 The Athletics that were on Sportscenter last night. Don't get a headache Mamba. I'm not saying the A's are Original. I'm saying the Athletics and Originals are both unambiguous names that get abbreviated to a letter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scpa0305 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Roughriders, Nokotas, Wolves have been approved. Please pass that along to the committee. Wasn't Prairie Wolves approved...or was it just Wolves. I heard Prairie Wolves. I did hear about Rough Riders, I would have liked that had RR not already had that nickname for the last 50.

The Sicatoka Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Between the Minnesota (Timber) Wolves and the SD Coyotes I think Wolves (though not a bad idea) is not workable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Dakota has also been known as the Sioux State at times in the past along with those listed. For various reasons, I don't see any of those used for the new UND nickname.
