    Alright you got me. Here is the black alternate throw-back SWEATER that designed. This logo predates the use of arrow heads and is more PC as some might associate arrow heads with Native Americans or Sioux Indians that might have been fighting with bow and arrows. This is a more friendly, well rounded version of the team logo.

      I'm offended because it creates an optical illusion of a strip. It cannot be continuous.

      I'm also disappointed that you can't properly close HTML tags.

        Anybody suggest Ghostriders? It worked for a junior team in B.C. before

          Well I guess that's the end of that jersey concept.

                The latest out of Vegas:

                50:1 Green Hawks - Might as well be the Chicken Hawks because that is what everyone else will call you
                35:1 Fighting Hawks - Still grasping at the past with every dying breath and see above
                20:1 Sundogs - A weak attempt to make ASU join the NCHC
                19:1 Nodaks - Has a "fighting" chance to get selected but then why not just be the North Dakota North Dakotians
                10:1 None [North Dakota] - Everyone in the UND admin would love for this to be the winner, but after all these years of battling over this, no way they're picking [Nothing]
                4:1 North Stars - North Dakota North Stars is too Northerly, but it likely has a good chance.
                3:2 Roughriders - Your odds on favorite, everyone wants some angry tough new warrior name that they'll never use at games anyway so here you go.

                    Re: North Dakota announces name.

                    One step closer to eliminating None as a choice, which I hope will happen in the next round of cuts. Though I had hoped it would have happened after this round of cuts. I'd guess it will be Nodaks (a mashup of the state's name) North Stars (Minnesota's state nickname) and Roughriders (the nickname of a local high school but is also North Dakota's state nickname) as the final three. Hopefully people are logical, which is usually doubtful, and Roughriders is chosen. Any other choice will range from bleh to terrible.

                      Yeah, I don't really see how that has made it this far. There's no way that wouldn't result in status quo continuing.

                        Maybe the logo can be a Rough Rider who ends up assimilating with a Sioux tribe and gets really tan and then has feathers in his hair.

                            1. Green Hawks isn't terrible.
                            2. Fighting Hawks also not terrible.
                            3. Sundogs makes zero sense.
                            4. Nodaks is terrible
                            5. Did I miss something? All I've heard for years is that they are not allowed to pick "nothing." They have to have a nickname, right?
                            6. Cut out this North Stars stuff
                            7. Roughriders is OK...Cavalry would have been way better.
