Iowa State's football team has reintroduced the Cynado logo, a design that fans have missed since it was retired in 2007. Originally launched in 1995, the logo features Cy the Cardinal caught in a tornado, affectionately nicknamed the 'Bird in a Blender.' The new version maintains the classic look while incorporating some modern touches, particularly a simplified red and gold color scheme. This change comes as a response to fan dissatisfaction with the previous I-State wordmark logo, which lacked the same appeal. Fans have responded enthusiastically to the return of the Cynado logo, celebrating it as a win for their community. Comments on social media reflect a strong desire for this logo to become permanent, with one fan stating, "The people finally won." The logo made its debut on Senior Day helmets, sparking hope among supporters that it signals a lasting change. The overall sentiment among fans suggests that traditional designs can still resonate and be effective, especially when they carry nostalgic value.
