I think a diagonal Hawks would look great on there if they didn’t want to put the logo. At some point, I’d love to see a state of ND outline of some sort. Put it on the shoulders or helmet. Show some state pride, not just UND-Grand Forks hockey program pride. There's hockey outside of Grand Forks? Quote

It started when they went to black-on-green instead of green-on-green stickers. Still looking for the words "Fighting Hawks" on a hockey jersey worn by Berry's team. Did you show me the Sioux logo and name on football helmets and jerseys back in that era? Quote
tnt Posted December 2, 2022 Posted December 2, 2022 2 hours ago, MafiaMan said: Nice try. How many NFL and college football jerseys have the school primary logo front and center on the chest of the jersey? The short answer is “none,” because there’s a number there. It’s on the UND helmet because that’s where the primarily logo is typically placed for a football team. Don’t remember the Sioux logo on the side of the football helmets back when that was the nickname, but now we need to have rules where the logo is or isn’t placed? Quote

That is probably 20 times the size as that. Almost like they did the same you are accusing of the hockey program. Quote

Real question... why was Football so stubborn in refusing to use the official logo of athletics on their helmet... It's like the program was trying to create their own alternative identity. 1 Quote

Because coach and eventual AD Roger Thomas wasn’t a fan of it and wanted its use minimized. UND’s use of the interlocking ND on the helmets dates back long before your time - and mine. Quote

siouxkid12 Posted December 2, 2022 Posted December 2, 2022 15 hours ago, Benny Baker said: The full "Fighting Sioux" name never made it on a hockey jersey either. Most seasons the word "Sioux" was also absent. And truthfully, from 1964-1993,* the hockey team was the only athletic program to wear the "Blackhawk" logo whereas every other program was using the interlocking ND and Geometric logo. Seems to me that there's always been a "hockey only identity" but its only recently that a certain subset of folks have chosen to complain about it. *Correction, if I recall, we had home whites for a few years in the 70s with the ND, but I still stand by the point. Incorrect. The football team had the blackhawk logo on the sleeves of their football jerseys for some time. Quote
