Agree. This is my favorite ISU logo of all time.
This is another great one.
Angry walking CY is my favorite. It would make a really cool secondary logo I think. Why couldnt we have a helmet that has the IState on one side and angry Cy on the other?

It will never happen but I used to love this one and the basketball one. I still have plenty of old cups with this on it.
love love lovePlenty of helmet logos aren't recognizable without a closeup.
May I offer an alternative solution?:
I like the old Cy logos, but we are the Cyclones, not the Cardinals or Redbirds. Use the Cyclone symbol it is totally unique to Iowa State.
I mean the new Coach is saying, " A Storm is Brewing" and then we have a helmet with a Bird on it? What sense does that make?

I'd enjoy seeing a black alternate uniform. I seriously doubt it will happen but I think it would look good with cardinal and gold highlights. I couldn't care less about what Iowa fans think about it either; they don't trademark the color black any more than Texas Tech does and Baylor wears black. Just don't wear black for the Cy-Hawk game.
I couldn't care less what Hawk fans think about it either. It has nothing to do with them.
You don't send the Cyclones, our loyal sons forever true, onto the field of battle wearing the colors of EIU. Period. End of story.
Scratch "fans" from my earlier post and it still stands. AIB East would not cross my mind for one second if Iowa State wore black alternate uniforms for a game against, say, West Virginia or Kansas State at JTS.
And like I said, I'm sure Texas Tech isn't on Baylor's mind, and Iowa isn't on Nebraska's mind, and Vanderbilt isn't on Tennessee's mind, and Oregon State isn't on Oregon's mind when each of those schools wear an alternate uniform with black in it.

Those of you complaining about black uniforms because Hawkeyes... Stop. As I posted in a different thread, do you think Oregon of their fans give a flying **** about wearing black even though their in-state rival has it as a color? No? Why not?
Cause they don't have an inferiority complex about Oregon State. So every time you complain about Iowa, you sound like whiny little *******. We are not their little brother. Over the past 15 years, we are their equal. So stop freaking acting like a little brother. We should do whatever we want because **** them. So, quit worrying about Iowa. If Campbell thinks a black uniform would help us in recruiting, then we should do it tomorrow. He knows more about recruiting 18 year olds than anyone on here (and judging by our recruiting results the past few decades, probably anyone on our former coaching staff).
So, please, shut the **** up and let him do his job.

BEHOLD: THE ALL WHITE IN ALL ITS GLORY [choir of angels singing]
Holy ****. That all white uni. Wow it's beautiful. I want that now.
yet you turn on an Iowa state game on ESPN or FS1 and the little lead-in graphic thing shows not one, not two, but THREE different Iowa state marks simultaneously. ISTATE, walking cy, and blender bird are all being used even though the blender marks are 'defunct.' there is a need for secondary marks and we have appropriate ones to use and it's being completely ignored by Iowa state licensing because they think the new cy oval is fine.
It is nothing like the old Walden-era swirl that was on the helmets then. The Swirl connotes Cyclones; that is who we are, and it is unique. I think we should embrace it, as a great secondary logo. Put and keep the 'I-State' logo on the helmets; put the 'swirl' on the sleeve, jersey, or pant, elsewhere (put the two-tone 'swirl' on the helmet for an "alternate" look every once in awhile). I think that would make a lot people happy. We have other good, past logos also; dust one or two of those off once in a while; they don't even have to be used on our uniforms. They don't have to be used alot, but why not un-retire a couple of them. They are part of our history. Take pride in it.

This is growing on me with the "storm is brewing" background. Maybe more clouds and whiter lightening for interest/contrast.Personally, I love the two-tone 'swirl' logo, and especially this new darker, two-tone yellow/gold 'swirl' logo here.

Leaning CY has always been my favorite. But on a uniform I think the funnel that CYCLNST has in his Sig looks really good.
