FARGO, ND – An April 22nd gathering of NCAA executives, North Dakota state representatives and the University of North Dakota’s Board of Higher Education should be open to the public as an opportunity for the NCAA to “explain to the people of North Dakota” their position regarding the Fighting Sioux Indianhead logo, North Dakota Governor Jack Dalrymple says.
Appearing on the Scott Hennen Show yesterday, Dalrymple advocated an open-door meeting with the involved parties so that statements made by the NCAA could be subject to a public reception…not confined to a legal document.
“I think it’s time for the NCAA to explain to the people of North Dakota why they are doing what they are saying they’re going to do. I think the time is come for them to articulate that, and not in a legal document.” Dalrymple said.
