I've seen more than a few suggestions of a Jack Trice / Nile Kinnick trophy. Trust me, I love the legend of Nile Kinnick as much as the next Hawkeye, but what about a Jack Trice / Cal Jones trophy? I know I didn't know about Jones until I got older. Putting him on the trophy would be awesome.
Cal Jones is the only three-time first team All-American in Iowa history. He is one of only two Iowa players to be named a consensus first team All-American twice (Larry Station). Jones was inducted into the Iowa Sports Hall of Fame in 1971 and the College Football Hall of Fame in 1980. The University of Iowa retired Cal Jones' #62, one of only two players so honored (Nile Kinnick).
