Vote for new Cyhawk Trophy

Think of it like the election in November, it's a lesser of the evil's scenario. They are all bad.

Once again theyre going to fall flat on their faces. I understand that they are the sponsors, but Iowa corn is going to swing and miss. These three are all they could come up with? IMO it was either put Kinnick and jack trice on the trophy, or bust. Looks like it's a bust. Smh. Just disappointing.

sums it up pretty good
 
# 1 characters are tooo cartoonie, otherwise I liked that one okay but not thrilled with any of them.

Playing for a belt instead of a trophy would be so freaking clutch.

I'd even go for a corn-belt tropy if tastefully done.

Hard to do something corn oriented though, without getting too much on the corny side.

Both the SCythe and Feed Bucket aren't bad.

I slept on it and had a dream... how about a New Millenium tractor that runs on bio fuels ie. corn... and has a solar panel canopy that powers it's cell phone and iPad?

Can you imagine the race to the hated rival's sideline to fire that bad boy up and ride it back to campus on the back roads of Heaven... no it's Iowa!
 
I wish I were still in college and still in student government. If I were, I'd have the student governments from Iowa and Iowa State come up with a real design, make it, and then have an agreement between the student governments to have the trophy awarded to the winning team. (Kind of like how the Floyd of Rosedale tradition was developed - with a bet between the governors.) Make the trophy available on the field during the game, and encourage the football players grab it at the end of the game, and send out a bunch of press releases announcing the "bet" between the student bodies.

The traditions and trophies that last have organic origins, not corporate sponsors.

STUDENTS: YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE HERE! GET THE UISG PRESIDENT AND THE ISU STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! Allocate some of your student budget for some seed money for the trophy, and then make a lot of noise about it, and I'm sure there are plenty of alumni out there who would donate money to make a real trophy.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's a little late in the game for that. This is now a corporate sponsored item for starters, and also it's already been through one nightmarish iteration of failure. I think the time for student body influence peaked after the first failure.
 
STUDENTS: YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! Go out, get drunk and abrasive towards your rival team's fans, and then brag about your trophy if you win, or make fun of how ugly it is if you lose!
 
I would have designed a corn football blimp with flames coming off it, and a tiny little Herky and Cyclone rooster creature piloting the burning Corndenberg into the precious moments family and burning them all alive.

to be fair... the sponsor is corn ... so enough is enough... just pick a trophy and stop being ladies about it doesn't match the rest of the trophies.

That's the whole problem. Get a sponsor with half a brain instead of that corn outfit. There has to be someone else out there.

Has there ever been a sponsor that has mucked up as bad as Iowa Corn? I certainly can't recall anything this bad before....
