SiouxForever Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Never mind, Nodaks.com is registered to someone at 4200 James Ray Dr. Nothing to see here. Wait a minute, isn't that the address for the Center for Innovation? More digging into this and your registerant for the domain name is Jordan Schuetzle. Quote

niouxsiouxfan Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 If I was asked ...."do you like Rough Riders for the new nickname"....I would say no. If I was asked...."pick a nickname from these choices" 1) Nodaks 2) Reapers 3) Roughriders Suddenly Ruffriders looks a lot better. There is already a theme song... Quote

GDPritch Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Who cares if a local high school has the same nickname? No one outside of the area would ever know that. I certainly didn't.Agree. 1 Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I will personally trade some originality if I can get a clean, sharp, awesome logo out of it. 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Another I could live with Prairie Ducks - we are world famous for the Prairie Pot hole Region & production of ducks And steal the old Oregon logo that looks like Donald........I like it............no I don't. Quote

nodakhoops Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I will personally trade some originality if I can get a clean, sharp, awesome logo out of it. I agree with this, that logo is a big part of this. Big reason why we all loved the Fighting Sioux name was the awesome logo we had. A nickname means little without a sweet logo to put on merchandise. For that reason I think i am also on the Roughriders bandwagon. A quick google search shows some pretty cool ways you could go with that logo. My favorite being this one, used by Cedar Rapids USHL team. http://news.sportslogos.net/2015/02/26/u-s-historical-figures-on-sports-logos/cedar-rapids-roughriders-teddy-roosevelt/ If UND ends up being the Roughriders with a logo somewhere along those lines I'll be extremely happy with that. Roll Riders!!! Quote
dagies Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 If it is the RoughRiders, then please don't go with a cartoonish looking logo. So many sports teams have cartoonish looking logos. Contrast that with the most recent Indian head logo........ Let's make sure it's classy and impressive. Quote

Old Time Hockey Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 If I can't have fairy unicorns, then my vote is for no nickname. 1 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 If I can't have fairy unicorns, then my vote is for no nickname. And if the logo can't have the unicorn flying and pooping a rainbow I'm out also. Quote
northstarsloyal Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 I'm predicting one of these: Rough Riders Spirit Flickertails Nodaks Nodaks makes a ton of sense seeing it's already used (Nodak Nation). I could also see Spirit and an incorporation of the flame logo seen around campus. Quote
