BlueButtesBoy Joined: 11/21/2007 Location: ND	I took my family to an event in Bismarck this weekend. There were some UND supporters standing outside with some "Save the Name" petitions. I hope all their hard work pays off so they don't lose their nickname. It would be a shame for a school to be stripped of that. To all the Sioux fans on here. I am a major Bison fan and I did sign that petition so you don't lose that name. We are all from ND, so lets support each other.
	Hail the Bison! Hail the Bison!

zoops Joined: 12/30/2009 Location: ND	I am a lifelong sioux fan, but I don't see what good will come of this? Sure we could get it back into law but if the NCAA doesn't budge - and they won't unless standing rock passes something - UND will be back to worrying about having no conference, no home playoff games, teams that won't play them, etc. I don't think us passing a law will convince standing rock to do something.

If they "undo" what the legislature did in repealing Carlson's bill, you can say Bye Bye to the Big Sky Conference. It's going to get interesting
