They list Santiago from South Dakota. 

On the pool of players entering the draft they have Cieslak from NDSU. 

Additional proof the XFL won't exist in 3 years.  Hopefully a couple of our guys can use it as a springboard in the meantime though.

No one in the national media has trouble distinguishing Michigan from MSU, Arizona from ASU, Florida from Florida State. I've never understood why differentiating UND from NDSU is such a challenge.

Here in Germany, I went to a game last week with my Sioux jersey on and was asked about the Notre Dame sigh-ux.

UND isn't top tier and even with a deep run into the Final Four in basketball still won't be a household name, or barely recognizable. Although, the f'n hawks logo sure stands out among other logos when displayed in a bracket.

Neither UND nor NDSU have 5% the national recognition as any of those other school.  I doubt many SEC fans could differentiate South Dakota from South Dakota State either.

To distinguish one first has to care.

Well yeah, there is that. But some people that are paid to care still don't.  IIRC the NCAA sent a trophy intended for NDSU to Grand Forks just a few years ago.
