So you are saying they are still better at football than GFCC?

[perthbison]

Why not just let the REA folks pick the nickname?

since it is a state funded school, we all should vote

Article suggesting only active UND athletes should vote on the nickname---maybe they should go further and let only hockey players vote.

I personally think Jacobs is on the right track. The vote should be limited, somehow. Look at it this way, if it's not limited...the bitch-whining about "those a$$hole Bison fans voting on our name" will continue forever. I have no interest in "us" being drug into anything related to the cluster going on up there. They should limit voting to athletes (current and former) and pizza delivery technicians and will thereby encompass the best group to vote. The donors and fans can have a fit amongst themselves about results.

Solen Sioux boys basketball team went 19-5 in 2014-15. Lost to Shiloh Christian in the Region 5 Championship game. The girls were less successful posting a 4-15 record.
