Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

[zimmy21]

Jamestown should be forced to change their nickname as part of being accepted into the NSIC. "Jimmies" is one of the worst nicknames in all of D2.

The branding in general looks like a high school. It all needs work.

Their enrollment and roster sizes are like a high school as well. Maybe there’s always 40 on men’s soccer teams??

Are you forgetting the Washburn Ichabods?

I'd buy a hat from them though as it stands.

This is a stretch when the MIAC exists. We’re all just immune to it up here….

St. John’s Johnnies
St. Thomas Tommies (RIP)
Gustavus Gusties
St. Olaf Oles
Augsburg Auggies
St. Benedict’s Bennies

Missed opportunity by Hamline.

To be fair he said for D2....these are D3 and now 1 D1 school

Fair. Or maybe I felt this thread needed another redirect

I think St. Thomas Tommies like Jimmies sound like a middle school name.

It sounds like the person in charge of the name was 20 beers deep

Nah Jimmies is worse

[canadarican]

So if Jamestown rebranded, or we rebrand them ourselves haha, what's some nickname options?

To be fair, St. Benedict's goes by the Blazers. And Hamline goes by the Pipers.

Could go several ways....
If they want to keep the knights motif just call themselves the Knights, or Orange Knights.
If they want to convey something with the North Dakota prairie they could be the Flickertails like UND used to be, or you could get away with Bison/Buffalo. lol so many possibilities

Hamline I knew, Wikipedia got me on St. Ben’s.

[SW_Mustang]

Hamline will always be referred too as the Hammies.

Should be a requirement for MIAC membership.

I’d vote for the Jamestown Jackalopes

Jamestown is a nice town. Always stop at the Big Buffalo
