Like I said from day one, retrofitting a masterpiece like that with part of the old scoreboard, just so we can have the sioux logo ("the precious") underneath it, can be described by many adjectives that I won't rehash. As the months roll by, and this same crap keeps happening, I find myself moving farther and farther away from UND hockey, and closer and closer to UND football, basketball, and volleyball. The UND volleyball photo shoot the other day is a great example of these other programs moving on, while the hockey program/sioux forever folks keep clinging to the past. (please, no sexist remarks about the photo, that wasn't my intent when I posted it) You're moving away from UND hockey because they show the Sioux logo? Goodness. I just don't understand this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's transitioning away (some think it's too slow, but so be it) from the Sioux logo. Like Darrell and I talked about before, we just need to stop both arguing who is right and just realize we're all UND and cheering for the same team. The transition will absolutely happen.

I’ve heard what is thought of the new nickname and logo by the hockey program and they are being dragged kicking and screaming for even an inch of progress towards the new brand.

It's been 7 years since the name was retired. The players on the team were in junior high or younger the last time UND was officially known as the Fighting Sioux. Do we need to wait another 10-15 years so that the players on the team weren't actually born before 2012 and maybe then the transition can be complete?

We had the Sioux name for way more than 7 years. My thought is that it'd take a generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel ike the Sioux logo and name has a stronger connection to the hockey program, IMO, for whatever reason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the founding documents of REA, Inc., yes they are. So if there were a Hawks logo under the scoreboard, that's a benefit to UND? They let that stupid parrot roam the stands during the game. Is that a benefit to UND? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
