Never happen, looks too native for around here! Feathers = Indians not birds... Sorry, I couldn't resist 2 Quote

Remove the letters and enlarge the bird head, then reverse it on the left hand side of the helmet so it is facing forwards on both sides. While that in no way comes close to the classic look of the simple but effective "ND" logo, it would be an improvement over the current helmet. Could not agree with you more. I'm not a fan of the new name or logo, but it does seem to work ok for football. Still not as good as the classic ND, but not terrible either. I also think if they put the logo on both sides of the helmet they should flip it so its facing forward on both sides. I don't really mind the letters, but I'm sure improvements, adjustments and alternatives will come out over the next few years. Quote

bigskyvikes Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 Just drove down Belmont and it looked like a friendly neighbor battle going on. One house has a fighting Sioux flag on it and their neighbor has a fighting hawk sign. Looked fun... Quote
Fetch Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 After seeing on the weather pics of Sundogs lately I wish it would have got more consideration Plus I'm honored to find some new obscure crap to keep this thread alive Can't imagine Xmas sales of hawk stuff was very high - I did look at a hat (non-fitted with the plastic holes strap in back) that I would never buy or wear & it was $26 @ both tthe Ralph & Scheels (rip off) 1 Quote
77iceman Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I can honestly say I don't even really "think about" the logo now. 1 Quote
UND1981 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I bought a green North Dakota hockey jersey at Scheels for myself for Christmas. Wanted to buy one before they start putting the FH logo on them. 2 Quote

NoiseInsideMyHead Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 Well, what do you know... http://news.sportslogos.net/2016/12/22/2016-creamer-awards-best-and-worst-new-logos-of-the-year/ 37th is like the new 28th. Or the 36th loser. Quote
bigskyvikes Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Trump's pretty decisive with his pen, maybe Indian nicknames could be allowed again! Wouldn't that be something? Someone send him a letter to ask, or maybe I could Tweet him! 1 Quote

MrEdway Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Was in GF for the holidays. Got pretty much the same response from every person I asked about the new logo/nickname, had they bought any new gear. Basicly a laugh and a Eff the Fighting Hawks. 1 1 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 i do see that some und twitter handles are doing different variations of the hawk logo with diffrent background colors and different nd colors iwth each sports name below it...kinda sharp looking. still think the white hawk, black nd, and green background is the best looking combo 1 1 Quote
MrEdway Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 They might look good on an envelope. That's about it. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Are you listening Coach Bubba? It's time.https://apps.nd.gov/dot/mv/mvrenewal/plate.htm It'll be awesome. The logo will look like it made that confused looking, improperly lit*, ugly, wooly, drool cow go sit in the corner. *The sunset is behind it but it is lit from the view's POV? 2 Quote
