They could change their name from the "Fighting Sioux" to the "Suing Fighters".

"The Native Americans should rise up and protest the NCAA's agenda,"

I believe the Seminoles already have.

I think a few Indian activists are involved, but from other tribes--from what I've read, the Sioux of North Dakota are not offended by the nickname.

The other major team that's being targeted by the PC-Nazis of the NCAA is the University of Illinois' Fighting Illini. Because of their refusal to buckle under, they won't be able to play in any post-season bowl games. Well, that and their win-loss record this season.

There should be an anti-NCAA effort to start a new national college organization.

Really, not just idle talk !

Like the newer AFL when the NFL would not be real.

The Seminoles. You're right. Was there ever a final resolution on that one?
