The committee took North Dakota off the ballot, Kelley didn't.

You're right....he was considering putting it back on once his office was inundated with angry emails...once things cooled down however, he decided to leave it off.

or maybe Kelly just got off the phone with the consultants and they said they just found out about this small school in Maryland that might put up a stink about UND being called the Fighting Hawks considering UMES have been the Fighting Hawks for a 100 years....

 

kinda like the cars.com app commercial..."we messed up"

Considering how intellingent crows are, that wouldn't have been as odious as some of the choices.  The fact there's a Crow tribe probably would have made it DOA.

i was thinking the same thing.  Would take the Fighting Crows in a heartbeat over a hawks related name

the x-files side of me says the announcer knew the name too...he asked the 100 year old guy which one he like and he said fh...the younger said he like rr...there was something in his voice that said he knew and wanted everyone to know he knew and he let everyone know he liked the winner!!!!

In keeping this fiasco true to form from beginning to end, it's time to roll out the old, classic joke:

Q: How do you keep rubes, chumps, and suckers in suspence? 

A: Tell you about 10 AM tomorrow.
