I am not sure what poeple don't understand. As this thread title clearly states, the voting process has been announced. The names to be voted on are already decided. The debate about what names should make the list is over. Why doesn't the Herald publish letters about what we can do tincrease our relations with the Sioux tribes to keep the Sioux nickname while they are at it........oh wait...to late!!! 5 Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 http://und.edu/news/2015/09/voting-dates-released.cfmSo in a month's time this could all be over.... but very unlikely. This will take another vote.I don't see any name getting over 50% the first time. Quote

Vegas_Sioux Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 If any alumni and/or supporter were to do this I would hope they would the courage to come forward.............so we could have a public flogging prior to a hockey game in the dead of winter.no, no, no. The public flogging will be the last home football game. The execution will take place outside of the arena in the dead of winter. Quote
ericpnelson Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 no, no, no. The public flogging will be the last home football game. The execution will take place outside of the arena in the dead of winter. frost would make it feel more fitting Quote
Dagger Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 So in the first vote, what name does everyone think will get the most votes? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 So in the first vote, what name does everyone think will get the most votes?RR Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 So in the first vote, what name does everyone think will get the most votes?RR, but Fighting Hawks will be a strong 2. There seems to be a massive movement on the students part for Fighting Hawks Quote
UNDBIZ Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 There seems to be a massive movement on the students part for Fighting Hawks Gross. Just to keep "Fighting" or what? Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Gross. Just to keep "Fighting" or what?Yes. I kid you not. Quote
southpaw Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Gross. Just to keep "Fighting" or what?Yup. At least that's what MafiaMan is going with.Was UND initially known as the Fighting Sioux or just the Sioux? If it's the latter, then perhaps the "Fighting" will find its way back to UND without it being a forced adjective. Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 If I was a betting man, I would put Roughriders and Fighting Hawks to get the most votes, in that order with Roughriders winning the runoff. 2 Quote
UNDBIZ Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 If I was a betting man, I would put Roughriders and Fighting Hawks to get the most votes, in that order with Roughriders winning the runoff.I hope you're right. I'm really nervous about Sundogs. I've spoken with way too many people who haven't closely followed the entire nickname saga who believe it's an acceptable option. Quote
southpaw Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 What Hawks Eatbut "Hungry Hawks" isn't up for a vote. Quote
sioux24/7 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 From my group of friends that are from Grand Forks they all hate Roughriders but I'm all for it. Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Gut feeling...the initial vote and subsequent run-off are not going to be the end of this saga. 1 Quote
ericpnelson Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Gut feeling...the initial vote and subsequent run-off are not going to be the end of this saga. I hope this isn't correct, nothing personal against your predictive prowess. In the likelihood that a run off is needed, I hope they do it the week afterwards or ASAP. I would HATE another month or so after the first election. Quote

Risky Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 I am not sure what the vote will be. Most people I talk to like the Roughriders. The only issue is whether it will have 50% of the vote. Quote
