Siouhawk Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 Somebody had it right, I was trolling! But I have to say I am a bit surprised by the total lack of appetite for bringing up the conversation again, and I am totally on board with that. Now would somebody please tell the fans at the hockey games to let it go also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Green Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Don't thing anyone can get the Sioux Nickname back. I also don't think it should come back. That ship has sailed. However, I do believe retiring the Fighting Hawk name and logo is in the best interest of the university. It has and been embraced and is and the main cause of the division among the fan base. Go back to just being THE University of North Dakota and the interlocking ND. Maybe down the road one day another nickname can be agreed upon, but now is the the time. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other programs, besides the hockey team have embraced and accepted the Fighting Hawks nickname. Check out the tweets when Football players and Basketball players commit to UND. The University is marketing the nickname. It’s not going to change. At some point there may be a tweak to the logo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
