Not all the players are shunning the new nickname. So booing this guy would say what.

True, but even if they don't sport the new logo, who cares?  I am sick of the booing too, but each person is going to come to terms with the new logo in their own time, so to paint those that aren't gung ho about it as the bad guys isn't helping either.

And it seems like those that have moved on, bought the merchandise, and cheer Go Hawks, will probably be given dirty looks or maybe words will be exchanged. I just hope whether you are wearing Fighting Sioux or Fighting Hawks we can all agree to cheer on UND, after all we are there to cheer on the players not to go all political about a nickname/logo. Time will heal this issue and this is the first full year of having a new name and more and more people are accepting it slowly, but if the REA refuses to call the team Fighing Hawks or fail to display the logo beyond this season, then there is a problem.

"Now that the dust has settled ..."?

UND, The Feckin' Hawks & their New York logo are just ignoring the dust, hoping no one notices that the dust ... is not settled.

We had a very good logo by a regional arist, Native American & North Dakotan. I'm guessing the new logo firm didn't settle for the same $2000 the last artist was paid.

brad berry wearing just a shirt with the new logo...just once....would pretty much end this stupidity.

I'm fairly certain that it was tweeted out that the Interlocking ND was going to be on the banner since that was the logo at the time of winning the championship.

Interlocking logo and Fighting Hawks (name) will be on the banner.....

Sioux...Hawks...Interlocking ND logo...who cares?  People can root for whatever logo they want as long as it's UND!  Some of you guys would bitch if you were hung with a new rope.

Exactly!!! He keeps blaming the REA! Why? These decisions are made by UND with the logo on the ice,  etc. It has been stated many times. Talk about people not able to let it go!

Well, ... yes. The nickname had been official adopted before Quinnipiac was dispatched. Thus, the team on the ice was officially the ... Fighting Hawks. 

How many teams can claim they won a championship within six (four?) months of adopting a new nickname.

On ice logo matches the jersey logo,  which were purchased prior to having a hawk logo. This is the last year of the interlocking ND at center ice.

Hockey haters gotta hate. Hope they are not keeping their season tickets,  there are plenty of others waiting to get them.

Methinks they run in the same circles.

[The Sicatoka]

Here's where I'm at. 

The name wasn't my first choice. The logo is growing on me (clean, sleek). 

Most of all I'm happy I'm no longer wasting energy on fighting the fight was was lost on August 5, 2005. I'm happy the University is no longer fighting that fight. There was a lot of good energy spent on that.

Now that energy can be refocused on building a better University of North Dakota.

I won't have a problem with UND fans that are wearing the FH merchandise.  I did have a problem with a certain Bison fan sitting behind me at men's basketball last winter that made an ass of himself squacking like a sick seagull.

I'm sure one mention of Fighting Hawks announced in the REA will be received with a bunch of boos. At least the boos died down in the Alerus as the game went on. If the booers don't like the name announced...don't go to the game. 

Saying that doesn't help, that's just gonna make people want to boo even louder and longer. The crybaby pc crowd finally got what they wanted and now they're going to have to live with the boos for days, weeks or maybe even years and I'm perfectly fine with that. If people don't like the boos they don't have to go to the games. I am a Fighting Sioux forever anti hawk fan but I don't boo the name! 

GO SIOUX!!!

There was a guy about 5 rows down from me at the Potato Bowl that was trying to squawk like a hawk and failed miserably.

You have poor reading skills don't you, you didn't read when I said the words "beyond this season". I know the ice and uniforms aren't ready for this season but they can still announce the team as the Fighting Hawks and they can put the logo on the scoreboard.

If people don't like Fighting Hawks being announced or on a uniform...stay home.

Stay away until they do,  if it's bothering you that much
