I don't know about that, but that logo appears in the arena in
literally multiple thousands of places. I did remember hearing a
seven-figure number thrown around as to the cost to change it,
although that was a few years ago.

That said, the decision does offer an out for any who is truly
desperate for UND to keep the name and logo: pay off the two tribes to
earn their support for it.
