SIOUXFAN97 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) My point was the lack of participation and the closeness of the 2 vs. 3 vote and I was predicting why Kelley did that. Please look at the just added justification and see that I am right in my prediction. I do not want participation, just a real majority vote to win. Please stop degrading people, especially if they are right in their prediction.spoken like someone that would award two 1st place trophies for a soccer match where the "WINNER" only won by one goal....

MafiaMan Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 So now the "Nodaks" folks are b*tching because the rules were changed to INCLUDE their choice in a run-off vote?Unbelievable. 3 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 and here come the lawsuits...which in my opinion won't be thrown out this time... Quote
UNDhoops Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 how does it not add up to 100%?rounding probably Quote
Teeder11 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Posted October 25, 2015 how does it not add up to 100%?The were probably rounded off, if that makes any sense at all. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I have talked to people that work for UND pushing for FH, so maybe that's where it came from?Of course...it is the safest, laziest, PC pick available that requires no thought process whatsoever.... again we are talking about those working in academia pushing for this.2 of the 3 I could live with.....FH isn't one of them.

Siouxphan27 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 So now the "Nodaks" folks are bitching because the rules were changed to INCLUDE their choice in a run-off vote?Unbelievable.the Nodaks folks aren't "bitching". I'd like the process open, honest, and not change the rules midstream. We're going to try and unite under whatever name is ultimately chosen. This change will just result in more frustration. Because of the change in process, when either Roughriders or Fighting Hawks wins, the other side is going to say their choice lost because votes for Nodaks took votes from their choice, and should have never been included in the runoff vote. capisce? 3 1 Quote
KSSioux Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 spoken like someone that would award two 1st place trophies for a soccer match where the "WINNER" only won by one goal....You really do not get it do you. I was predicting what Kelley would say why he did this. Please take your sarcasm elsewhere. I am the probably the most against "participation" awards as you can get. My comments were about how pathetic president Kelley was in this and my prediction was correct. Please attack someone else. 1 Quote

darell1976 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Go Fighting Hawks!!! (Or RR if FH loses) Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 However, I do agree. Cannot change the rules midstream. What if neither one gets 50% the next time? What then? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 It was/is the students pushing FH not the administration nor the faculty. Whatever........I got buddies whose kids go to UND. To a kid they all have very few students they know like FH. Heck my daughter in HS who is considering UND hates FH too Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 However, I do agree. Cannot change the rules midstream. What if neither one gets 50% the next time? What then?FH wins automatically........... Quote
siouxfan512 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Not even going to comment on the process right now. I think I've said my piece on that in the past. Nevertheless, Go Nodaks. Quote
Teeder11 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Posted October 25, 2015 Whatever........I got buddies whose kids go to UND. To a kid they all have very few lije FH.Well, there you have it then. Must be right. 1 Quote
Cratter Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) What a joke!"We want to give the third place name, Nodaks, to continue to gain traction.""We think Roughriders wins easily if its Fighting Hawks vs Roughriders. We don't want that." Edited October 25, 2015 by Cratter 4 Quote
MafiaMan Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Or they wanted three to divvy up enough votes between nodaks and rr that Hawks will pull away So even though the hockey folks apparently prefer Nodaks, you're mad because Kelley is sabotaging Rough Riders? Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Let's go Hawks!University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks! 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Well, there you have it then. Must be right. Correct........... 1 Quote
Siouxperman8 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 So now the "Nodaks" folks are b*tching because the rules were changed to INCLUDE their choice in a run-off vote?Unbelievable.I'm with you on this one. People looking for a conspiracy where nothing exists, especially when adding Nodaks gives their choice (and mine) a chance. 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I'm glad we will go from the best college nickname to one that 40+ colleges share. Brilliant........ 3 Quote
TrueSioux2000 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I'm just astonished Sundogs got almost 13%. That's the real story here, folks 4 Quote
