You've seen my idea, with the ROTC ball, Kinnick and Trice.
Iowa Corn CEO Craig Floss: "We're changing the trophy."
Fans will have input. Interim trophy. Asking for fans patience. Wants to get it correct.
Sites coming for the voting.
Trophy redo.
_____________________________
New trophy will not be on the sidelines Sept. 10 in Ames.
Smart move.
Interim trophy, no idea what that will be.
_________________________
Plans for trophy change were in works before Gov. Branstad torched it.

Financial arrangement:
Taking care of by the U's, Iowa Corn not directly involved.
I think the question was directed toward what the finanical arrangement is between Iowa Corn and the schools for the sponsorship.

OK, I'll get a link for the voting or whatever they want to offer for the fans' vote as soon as I can.
The new Cy-Hawk trophy on display Friday, Aug.19, at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines, Iowa. Fans, a former coach and the governor all are unhappy with the new Cy-Hawk trophy awarded to the winner of the annual football game between Iowa and Iowa State. 'I think they can do better,' Gov. Terry Branstad chuckled Monday Aug. 22, 2011, when asked about the trophy. 'I'm sure they're going to take another look at that.' (AP Photo/The Des Moines Register, Andrea Melendez)
