Depends on your perspective. When you've been following the Cyclones for 40 years, 12 years is indeed a few.2007. More than a few years.
GOLD HELMETS ARE THE SOLUTION
What was KU going for with that old logo? Stripper Hawk? Lol
This FOX tweet on retro Big 12 logos got me thinking ()
I would love to see use use walking Cy on a helmet/uni combo this year. (white helmet would be good for it).
Baylor has done it (https://www.uniswag.com/blog/baylor-retro-look)
OSU has Pete (https://www.si.com/college-football/2015/08/03/oklahoma-state-football-pistol-pete-helmet-photos)
WV did it (http://landgrantgauntlet.com/2018/1...ss-in-the-big-12-throwback-helmets-road-unis/)
would love to see it at some point. Hope we get a surprise this year
Any of the Cy logos from that era are great, I love all the different ones around that time for the different sports etc. But of course the walking Cy was the best. But I'm torn if the Walking Cy vs the Orr Cyclone (updated version without Iowa State above it) which is better. I love that Cyclone too.

I think it would also be cool to see a helmet with the modern version of our Cyclones in the arc like there was in the 80's. Possibly with the Orr Cyclone below it? Using this modern logo:![]()

Using just the tornado from this one would be fantastic I think.Any of the Cy logos from that era are great, I love all the different ones around that time for the different sports etc. But of course the walking Cy was the best.

Kind of sad that they used those beautiful gold helmets for one single game.2007

Wouldn’t that be great, however I don’t think it will ever happen. I don’t think CMC likes gold other than in the trim. I don’t recall seeing any of the coaches wearing goldI would love to see us beat Iowa wearing old school cardinal and gold uniforms.
The dumbest thing we ever did was have a bird as a logo and not just a tornado.
No, it's clearly the turd bugle logo that you have as your avatar. That cheap-ass Walmart lookin logo is a complete embarrassment. I'm embarrassed that the athletic department chose to do this to us, and I would be embarrassed to wear any attire with it on it. I could have photoshopped a better logo in 7th grade. If I ever win the lottery, my massive athletic department donation is contingent on burning that logo to the ground and purging all remnants.The dumbest thing we ever did was have a bird as a logo and not just a tornado.

The modified Orr-nado is clearly the best vintage logo we have (along with Walking Cy).
