AGREED
Does this only effect play-offs? If so, how do they enforce, do they fine, or suspend? I guess I am unclear to what the NCAA set?
The more important question is for ndfan. Who is that on your avatar?

Well, they can take their so call honor else where! I don't feel honored because you wear a patch or logo on your jersey's!

You've got to be kidding me. Why don't you go complain some where else. Just because you think the name is "hostile" doesn't mean that every other person on here does. So just stop complaining

I am not trying to out do you, infact, I am trying to help you understand why the us of the name is hostile or racist. I have openned my mind to your side, infact, I used to support the use of the name, but as I educated myself more, I learned that the use of the name is hostile and abusive and racist. I am looking to be treated as an equal, and reducing me to a mascot or logo is not being treated as equal

How come you feel reduced to a mascot or logo but the Irish don't?
