Iowa Football: Kinnick Stadium Adding Tigerhawk To Midfield

It has been announced that Kinnick Stadium will be adding the ‘Tigerhawk’ logo for home football games, to be added for the start of the 2017 season.

After years of fans requesting the addition, it finally has come to pass as the athletic department announced. Recently, head coach Kirk Ferentz strongly hinted that this was coming when he sat down with Chad Leistikow of Hawk Central.

Regarding the announcement and plans for the addition, the athletic department stated:

The playing surface in Kinnick Stadium will feature an Iowa logo for the first time since the conclusion of the 1980 football season, as the Tigerhawk will be installed at midfield when the new FieldTurf is put in place in the coming weeks.
