Fighting Hawks ranked the highest.

 

Well I agree with the lowest.  The fairly surprising.  Teeder, care to show them the list below and inform that its no surprise the consultants haven't said much, if any, negative things about Hawks:

 

 

Pretty original too.  There are 9 other colleges at various levels who had a Native American related nickname and now have some variation of "Hawks":

 

Chowam Hawks - formerly Braves (2006)

Dickinson State Blue Hawks - formerly Savages (1972)

IUP Crimson Hawks - formerly Indians (2006)

Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks - formerly Indians (2006)

Miami RedHawks - formerly Redskins (1997)

Ripon Red Hawks - formerly Redmen (1985)

Southeast Missouri State Redhawks - formerly Indians and Otahkians (2005)

Seattle Redhawks - formerly Chieftains (2000)

Stonehill Skyhawks - formerly Chieftains (2005)

That's sad, and makes you no fan of UND, that comment makes you a member of the Herd. BV is that way---->

Says the guy who never attended UND, lives in Fargo, makes it to one game a year, and obsesses about NDSU hourly. Got it!

Here's the latest? ???

Burleson originally tweeted it was "off the list".  Bad word usage on her part, as they were at that point just discussing to remove it.

 

Just for the record, that is the second time "no nickname" has been on the table to be removed as the lowest scoring remaining name and has somehow received a stay of execution both times.
