Personally, I think they should have went with a plain green sweater. And insisted that they are not referred to as anything OTHER THAN the FIGHTING SIOUX. But then again, some say I am a fanatic.

If they had done that:

- there'd be no 12:30 pm game on Sat, Mar 24, as the NCAA would advance WMU and forfeit UND out of the tournament

- UND'd be on a bus back to Grand Forks

- UND'd be getting a bill for the expenses incurred by the NCAA to bring them to the West Regional

That's exactly what the letter from the NCAA to UND a couple weeks ago said.

Worth it? Mario Lamoureux would tell you, "No."

As far as I can tell, this is the first time UND played in an NCAA tournament game without the Sioux name anywhere on their jerseys.

And they won. The sky did not fall down.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm. :lol:

I really liked them as well. Would like to see the other colors but the white ones were sharp and the picture that leaked definately did not do them justice.

I know the jerseys have the lace holes on the collar but did they actually have laces in it? I saw a picture of Mario and it didn't look like he did.

Must have taken them out for the game. In the leaked picture, Kristo had the laces in.

I thought the Sioux were a second slow on their passing yesterday. They seemed to glance down at their jerseys to be sure they were passing to someone with a similar one on.

So, do we think the Sioux will never play a game with the Sioux logo on their jerseys ever again? If so I may by an authentic of the reebok one now to have forever.

I'm certain they'll never wear the logo again. Shelled out $250 each for a green and white authentic back in the summer of 2010 and just hammered out a trade with YaneA for a black authentic. Collection complete.

You know what.

I hope they don't. Unless the SL Tribe somehow wins their suit against the NCAA.

It wouldn't bother me if the UND administration just ignored the "law without teeth" and dropped all references to the name. Tell Al Carlson and his buddies to kiss their collective rear ends.

I would prefer we keep the name, but if not, it's not like the traditions the fans have, etc will change anyways? The only difference will be the jersey.

I just don't want to miss out on getting my size for the jersey if they never sell them again, etc.

How DARE you talk to the "Prime Minister" of North Dakota that way!!! :p

Seriously, I am with you 100%. Ignore the law and tell "Clueless Al" and his minions to "Just Bring It". :angry:

I hope the ND Supreme Court does its job so we don't have to worry about it anymore.
