The Cy-Hawk Trophy Sucks -- Let's Fix It.

PrintLook, it's not my intention to piggyback off everything Morehouse writes for the Gazoo (I swear), but frankly he struck a nerve when he wrote about the Cy-Hawk Trophy earlier this week. It's something I've been thinking about for a long, long time. As he so rightly noted, it's ugly. In fact, I'd imagine he meant to write that it's really fucking ugly and a damn abomination, but the Gazette's censors put the kibosh on that. Jerks. But, hey, we all know the score: it fucking sucks. The only other rivalry trophy that gives it a run for its money in the "holy hell that's a travesty" department is the Land Grant Trophy. But that one isn't our concern.
The Iowa-Iowa State rivalry deserves -- nay, demands -- something better than the Cy-Hawk Trophy, a piece of shit that looks like it was cobbled together in twenty minutes by a meth-addled shop teacher. Which, given the mystery surrounding its origins, could be true -- you never know. And don't just trust my judgment. Even Ferentz thinks it's terrible (from Morehouse's article):
"When we beat Iowa State two weeks ago, we won this trophy called the Cy-Hawk Trophy," Ferentz said. "Quite honestly, it looks like something that somebody made in their basement. It seems like a Soap Box Derby project or something like that."
It's time for change. So what can we do? Glad you asked! I have ideas. Oh yes -- ideas.
First idea -- logos. That's good, right? They're instantly identifiable symbols and powerful images. The problem is they're not necessarily timeless -- especially if you're Iowa State and you change logos every ten years or so. It'd look a bit silly to slap the tigerhawk and the block I-state on a trophy if ISU devises some wacky bird logo in a few years and decides that's their ticket to branding fame and fortune.
Maybe like this? Only not so ugly. Though that may be impossible with I-State's logos involved.
Second idea -- some sort of iconic Iowa imagery or concept. But what the hell qualifies there? The Sullivan Brothers? Grant Wood's American Gothic? A barn? A picture of rolling farmland? None of those ideas really seem that exciting, though the idea of football players parading around a framed print of American Gothic has a sort of perverse appeal.
Probably not what Grant Wood had in mind.
Third idea -- what's more intrinsically Iowan than agriculture? Iowa State may get the ag school rep, but they don't have sole claim on the concept. Farmers like the Hawkeyes, too, and as the helmets show, Iowa respects farmers.
But what sort of agricultural symbol to use? Animals are out of the question -- we already play for a pig and a bull. What's left for Iowa State? A sheep? A chicken? While there's a certain absurdist appeal to playing for a big metal chicken, it's not exactly the mightiest or most noble member of the bird kingdom.
Perhaps slightly bigger than we need.
What about tools? Wisconsin and Minnesota play for a big damn ax, after all. On the other hand, there's a certain coolness factor to a big axe that probably isn't there for a big hoe. Maybe a big sickle, if you want to go old-school? Downside? Could be dangerous -- do you really want a bunch of adrenaline-fueled 20-year olds swinging around a giant sickle? Other downside? Sickles were co-opted as a symbol by the Soviets and a team led by Ricky Stanzi isn't going to stand for any pro-Soviet nonsense.
This could definitely take an eye out.
No, there's only one way to go if we really want to blow this out and come up with one kick-ass rivalry trophy... TRACTOR. It's tough, it's fundamentally Iowan, and hell, one of the world's premiere tractor manufacturers is located in the Quad Cities (and, sure, technically John Deere is in Moline, but let's not quibble). And, yes, you could just go for a snazzy gold or bronze tractor model mounted on some wood. It'd be a step up on the Cy-Hawk Trophy, for sure. But we can do better. Why not... a REAL GOLD TRACTOR. Yeah.
VROOM VROOM
Win the game, sprint across the field and climb on that -- now we're talking. Or maybe I just had a little too much to drink. I'm just brainstormin' here. You got a better idea, throw it in the comments. (H/T to my friend Joel for his help.)

I love the tractor...
The John Deere Cy-Hawk Trophy has a nice ring to it.
John Deere Cy-Hawk TRACTOR, you mean
…and that tractor had better be green.
I’m all for this. The winner gets to take victory laps.

A few thoughts:
1. You’re dead-on with something involving an ISU logo; you’ll just redesign the trophy every two years.
2. Good luck getting American Gothic out of the AIC. Plus, I rather like having it here.
3. Chickens are one of the only types of livestock I don’t think about when it comes to Iowa. Hell, there are two alpaca farms near Muscatine alone, but I can’t think of a single poultry farm I’ve seen (doesn’t mean they aren’t there, just not iconic enough).
4. The schythe could actually work if it were inverted and the point were slightly embedded in a block of something (Maytag Blue Cheese?).
5. A tractor? Yeah, it’s kinda awesome to think about until you realize that a)if a player isn’t injured at the game b)drunk college kids are likely to get injured doing stupid things after the game i.e. “and finally in tonight’s news, Iowa Hawkeye, Riley Reiff, continues to recover from injuries sustained when the annual victory tractor he had nakedly stolen for a joy ride flipped over on Riverside Dr., crushing his legs and killing the pit bull of a teammate…”
Not so good.

Fruitland and Conesville
My parents were both raised there, and I still have family there. Now that I live in IC, I have no excuses to avoid the place anymore.
You've got to be kidding me.
I grew up in Denver, Colorado. I went to Iowa and lived there for ten years after I was done with school. I could name numerous towns near Muscatine and I’m hardly a native.
All you have to do is watch an hour’s worth of tornado warning coverage on KCRG and you know every small town in eastern Iowa.

Excellent point, Cincinnatus.
I knew Fruitland was near Muscatine, but only because a pretty sizable tornado kicked that town’s butt a couple years ago. And at the time I thought this equation:
“Muscatine=Muscatine Melons=Fruit=Fruitland.”

To me there is only one trophy that makes sense
The state contingent named their abomination of a stadium after Jack Trice. The home the Hawks is a beautiful palace named after a Heisman winner we all know as Nile Kinnick. I say the trophy has a statue of the two on top. And then go back and place all of the results from past games on it. Keep adding to it each year after the game is played with the year and score of the game much the way lord stanley’s cup is updated. If it changed names to the Kinnick-Trice trophy I wouldn’t cry either. Frankly everytime I hear Cy-Hawk I think of Hy-Vee. As much as Kurt Warner’s former employer means to the state, it really is too commercial to be that much apart of a trophy.

Actually, we chould keep going with the Hy-Vee theme
and have a block of heavy wood with either a black/gold or red/gold can added to it every year, like so:
That could end up being one heavy trophy.

I do too,
but again, whose name would appear first in the name? Also, Trice is not an Iowa native. I mean, he’s an honorary native, certainly, and the spirit of it is perfect, but really it’s a naming issue.

I think I've got it (and I'm not joking).
We need something that’s
#1. Representative of the state
#2. Sturdy/manly (read: heavy)
#3. Unique.
Seriously, how hard would it be to have some sort of commemorative logo printed on the side of a feed bag (it’s gotta be full, of course) and then just proceed to print the results down the side? Sure I’m biased, but I love this idea.
Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.
In all seriousishness,
The Kinnick/Trice idea is the best. Although the name would have to be neutral, like the Loyal Sons Trophy (actually, can’t use that either, b/c the “loyal sons” is too ISU-y), otherwise there would be too much issue taken with who’s name is first in the trophy name.

I agree.
The Trice/Kinnick idea is solid. Naming may be an issue, but it could be solved with a simple who came first kind of deal. Jack Trice died in 1923, Nile Kinnick in 1943. Calling it the Trice-Kinnick Trophy shouldn’t upset too many, even though, IMO, Kinnick-Trice Trophy has a better ring to it.

Not to disagree with you
But it’s already called the Cy-Hawk trophy, with “Cy” being first in the name anyway. I don’t see much of us Iowa fans getting in a huge sweat about it.
I think it’s a nice consolation prize for those silly ISU fans that their name gets to go first even if we always beat the snot out of little brother.
Valid points, all.
