SiouxVolley Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Half page sounds more feasible in the time frame. But it's not in color? Maybe just inform the students how Hawks is not unique and Hawks are a default nickname for removed Indian ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxVolley Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 So realize that we'do be as unique as Dickinson St with F Hawks and B Hawks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingsioux4life Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 You know, this whole snow job by Kelley could backfire if people get mad and vote Roughriders to prevent the consultant's choice of Fighting Hawks from winning. One can only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIOUXFAN97 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I would chip in, definitely. Maybe take an ad out in the Dakota Student explaining why Roughriders represents the state. If we were there Fighting Hawks, that would take years of education to know where we were from.I don't think it would have to be anything special...just a couple lines. Dear UND Students,Any vote for Fighting Hawks or Nodaks is a vote of endorsement for outgoing President Kelly.Thank you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing he prefers Fighting Hawks...since it's the only true PC name left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmksioux Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 But you'd be "fine" with something other than Rough Riders, as long as it actually is Rough Riders.Not sure if this was aimed at me, but as Rough Rider voter, I'd be fine with Nodaks, and as much as I dislike it, Fighting Hawks...as long as the initial voting rules were still in tact. I definitely don't like that they are allowing three in the final vote as that will most likely result in the winner having less than 50% of interested voters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Maybe if the students knew that Kelly was secretly in favor of Fighting Hawks, they would change their minds about supporting it. Kind of reminds me of that Saved By The Bell episode where Buddy Bands were going up against Friendship Bracelets. Zack gives Mr. Belding a Buddy Band and instantly, everyone hates them and doesn't want to want something the principal endorses. Same think can be done in this scerio. Spread the word around campus...."Kelley wants Fighting Hawks." 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnt Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) O.K. since they can make variations to the names given, are there any variations that would entice those not enamored with Rough Riders because a high school has it, to vote for an offshoot like Range Riders or something of the sort? Then you would be calling one Rangers for short, and the others Riders for short. I know, too late in the game for it, and the powers that be would be the ones making any variations anyway.

SIOUXFAN97 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I am hoping that someone with deep pockets puts something on those digital boards in town with a pic of pres Kelly and his wife and the two nicknames Fighting Hawks and Nodaks right below it...and quickly.
