Wow! That's a good list. Tinsley had a chance until he missed that layup....
Just to expand upon them slightly...
Jack Trice was the obvious first choice. His story personifies and his words define everything there is about being a Cyclone, and his life and death is more relevant now than ever.
Troy Davis and Marcus Fizer achieved the highest individual honors of any player in the history of the two most important programs, football and men's basketball. Davis nearly and should have won a Heisman, and Fizer was a consensus first-team All-American. I don't think we've had any others.
Cael Sanderson, even though he's now departed from us, is the most dominant college wrestler of all-time and an Olympic gold medal winner. Iowa State wrestling probably has the proudest history of any of our programs, so picking somebody like him to represent it makes the most sense to me.
I feel bad for not putting any women on the list, though.
