Its going to be a slow heal. Expand Yes, but which previous administration? Tom Clifford had great working relationships with the tribes and could've gotten a "perpetuity" deal. Kendall Baker? Well the jerseys went blank under him for a while, then geometric, so you know what his end goal was. Charles Kupchella could've followed through on the First Amendment threats and taken the NCAA to court on that. Robert Kelley floundered with committee after committee instead of leading and taking actions. By the time (interim) Schafer and Kennedy arrived, things had been pushed around the playing field as much as they possibly could and needed to be acted upon. And so they have. 1 Quote
UND1981 Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Good secondary logo would be a couple of tomi's; that would qualify as fighting hawks. No feathers to avoid NA imagery. Quote
UND-1 Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 I see that hockey players are back to the "Sioux" usage on Twitter again. Berry really laid down the law, boy. That really helps the university in their implementation of the logo and nickname. I mean, Cam Johnson knows alot about being a Sioux hockey player and wearing that logo. 2 2 Quote

Berry, although a great coach, just has too much conflict of interest in this whole "tradition" and "culture" situation. Of course, one could argue Bubba would have conflict too but clearly he took the logical road instead, which is great. The hockey community currently breeds hatred for the new logo and nickname. There needs to be a change in the hockey culture before many fans begin to even fathom change and I agree that starts with Berry. 3 3 Quote

Berry needs to start promoting the new name and logo, much like the other coaches at UND have. 2 1 Quote

If Gersich wants to say Sioux on twitter or FB or whatever thats fine, its free speech. But putting on a jersey with a Hawk on it, and stepping out on the ice with the hawk logo, seeing fans with Hawk jerseys will be a reality check. If people think no one will buy a Hawk jersey, just think people bought UND jerseys with no Sioux logo on it after the name was retired. 1 1 Quote
