That would be perfect without using the brown gold.
I go on vacation from July 13 through July 31.
Just my luck to probably miss an unveil (and to complain about it).
At least I won't miss much else for sporting news.

Have written for many years here that ISU should return to the "Dirty Thirty" uniforms. And this rendition is very close. Two thumbs way up.

The all white and all cardinal uniforms are perfect they way they are.

i like the all whites. Not even close to being sold on the all cardinals

You're right, we should just go to gray and black and white!
Getting rid of the Criner Tornado was the best thing ISU has done relative to logos or helmet decals. I don't recall anyone ******** about its disappearance back in the 80s and I find it humorous that so many here have advocated its comeback and wrongly calling it an Orr Tornado.
ISU needs to stick with the I-State logo as its primary athletic mark and stick to its current Cardinal and Gold shades. A black/silver alternate for a game is fine by me as well as the new Cyclone logo.
Changing the Gold shade to what was used for the Trice throwbacks would be ideal but the costs to change signage, murals, courts, etc. in all of University venues make that change prohibitive unless Nike foots most of that bill.

I was in school during the Criner years and know it came from Criner - agree don't know why people are calling it the Orr tornado. Even though Criner was not good I really like the logo. I find it preferable to the new logo.
All about PR. People get nostalgic about throwback stuff, and the old tornado is one of those things. Calling it the “Orr Tornado” is their way of trying to disassociate it from Criner, but that’s a lie - it’s still the Criner Tornado.
Where did you find a Cyclone message board in the ‘80’s?
I thought that was the best representation of a Cyclone we’ve ever had. Much better than that abortion of a logo and color scheme (blue?!!) that Mac brought in.
Just too bad that it was associated with Criner.
Who cares if it was associated with Criner? It was also associated with.... Iowa State University, and it just happens to be a part of our history. It's not like were trying to use a swastika here people. Besides it has been altered from it's original design, so technically it's not even the same design. Be interesting to see if the people who ***** about the over thinking of our colors are the same people ******** about the Criner tornado?
If only for the sake of CF sanity they need to be released. This thread is getting painful.
I like it. Kind of a homage to the ISU fanatic spirit. If we can't have it, we are going to grow ulcers through our anxiety and over analyzing.
