Cratter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Any reason RR fell out of favor and dropped from #1? Still in the running, but...hmmm... trademark? Negative use? Little odd isn't it.

UNDColorado Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 robert.kelley@UND.edu Make your voices heard people. Done. Was respectful and to the point- anything but sundogs! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Time to get rid of these consultants and some of these clueless committee members. Put the choice in the hands of the people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cratter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I'm guessing it looks like the tradition will continue... Looks like Fighting Hawks it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crb1 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Not a fan of any of the names moving forward. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayduke Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Little odd isn't it. Fighting Hawks Nodaks Sundogs In what world... If RR wins out, I would have to say KG might have saved it among that crowd with the move to forward the five names left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cratter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I would say that is where I am as well. Maybe they are smarter than we give them credit for. Throw in a crop name... And the so so names remaining will look like world beaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cratter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hawks is just So unoriginal though. In today's ncaa hockey game it's the UND Fighting Hawks VS the UML River Hawks. I can only get so proud of a name knowing it's the same one as tons of other universities in this country. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only get so proud of a name knowing it's the same one as tons of other universities in this country. And in other NCAA hockey it's the Mavericks of UNO vs the Mavericks of Minnesota St-Mankato and the Huskies of Michigan Tech take on the Huskies of St. Cloud State.

Cratter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 The 12 most used names of four-year college teams: Eagles (76), Tigers (46), Bulldogs (39), Panthers (33), Knights (32), Lions (32), Bears (30), Hawks (28) , Cougars (27), Pioneers (28), Warriors (27) and Wildcats (27).

Csonked Out Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Honestly, I don't even care anymore. This whole process has been ridiculous, it is just a nickname at the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darell1976 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 @AnnagatorB: #Newnickname meeting extended-They're discussing putting UND/ND in the voting just to see what the public thinks, not for consideration. Waste of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be in favor of eliminating that for my favorite team. I don't like sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't even make sense -- why would you measure what the public thinks if it's out of consideration? If it's back in the vote, it's back under consideration, no matter what they say.
