Are these replicas or authentic? Replicas I’m thinking for the price

I hope so. They don't look that good compared to what the players are wearing.

Nodak is not our nickname.

It's an alternative jersey and not every team has their nickname on their jersey.

And Zags isn't Gonzaga's nickname.  Get over it!

Yeah they should have just put Sioux on it for a one off jersey!

They could charge $500 for that and they’d sell out.

Gotta get that damn Hawk off the back

Can we just accept that the hawk is here to stay. I don't like it either but what you going to do

I'm asking a trademark question. If you don't own it and protect it ...

Sarcasm. Looks nice above the last name. Would be cool to see on the helmets. 

[The Sicatoka]

I'd just like to be consistent on "base" helmets (all sports, save for SB batting helmets) across the board: 

- green
- ND hawk logo on both sides
- UND at top middle of mask
- number at back middle

that’s a good point, something to consider. Maybe we should trademark it.

That's dumb too.  

Fighting Hawks is our nickname.  Get over it!  (See, it goes both ways )

I don’t mind the way it looks on the back. Sometimes it grows on me, sometimes I just hate it. Idk. I will never like it as much as the Sioux logo and I will stubbornly old onto the Sioux name. But I will go on record saying that on the back on these jerseys. It looks kinda sharp. I also bought one of these. But I don’t own a hawks jersey

A few reasons Zags works:

1. Monosyllabic, fun, rolls easily off the tongue. 

2. Plural; singular sounding nicknames tend to suck, or at least be hard to modify for casual use. 

3. People (fans and media) actually use it. 

Nodak is more of a placeholder, something that desperately wants to be a fun alt-identity, but isn't. 

Try it with North Carolina. Everybody loves "Carolina" and the "Heels," but has anyone ever used "Nocar"? 

"Daks" would be closer, but still doesn't flow because people say "Duh-Kota" and not "Daa-kota." 

Great monikers happen, but cannot be forced.

I don't understand this. It's a  relatively common nickname for the state of North Dakota (see Nodak Electric or Nodak Mutual Insurance Company)

Related - The University of California, Berkeley Golden Bears are often referred to (including on uniforms) as Cal. Cal isn't their nickname and I also don't think it's an attempt to do an end-around on the Golden Bears. I understand the issues at play here but personally I think it's reading too much into this to assume it's an attempt to get around Fighting Hawks. The logo is on the jerseys just like it is now. However instead of North Dakota it says Nodak (short for North Dakota).

Nodak is part of UND legacy, has been for 100 years.

if REA cared they could create a black "nodak" uniform for each team...male and female...or just do hockey only...again.

Right, which is why I don't find it odd at all to have it on a jersey.
