The IOWA helmet this season

I wouldn’t mind the ANF sticker going away again.
Gonna say the same thing. I understand why it was put on initially, it’s corny AF now
Nah, I still eat food.
And I don’t farm.
I guess maybe I’m the only one that still needs farmers??!
Um, those aren't all black.
Explain to me like I'm 5 why they are different please
Do farmers actually grow anything that humans eat in Iowa?
Field corn is a key ingredient in many foods, including cereal products like corn flakes, grits, and tortillas, and processed foods like corn syrup, corn oil, and starch. It's also used in beverages and industrial alcohols like corn whiskey.
Soybeans deliver a vegetable protein option for humans. Most of the time, foods incorporate soybeans after they’ve been crushed. Soybean meal provides protein in foods like protein bars, meat alternatives and soy milk.
Global animal agriculture, however, is the main soybean customer. Producers rely on the high-quality feed to nourish animals like chickens, pigs, turkeys, cattle and fish that thrive on nutrient-dense soybean meal.
The soybean meal fed in the U.S. goes to several segments of animal agriculture.
- Poultry eats about 61.2%.
- Hogs consume 18%.
- Beef and dairy cattle use just over 18%.
- The rest goes to aquatic farming like fish and shrimp, other farm animals and companion animals like horses and pets.
USDA ERS - Feed Grains Sector at a Glance
The major feed grains are corn, sorghum, barley, and oats. Corn is the primary feed grain in the United States, accounting for more than 90 percent of total feed grain production and use.

Products made from soybeans touch everyday life in countless ways, though often behind the scenes.
Be sure and stay on the west coast, TIA
We absolutely still need farmers!

I want it there just to piss off ISU and their fans for not doing it first. Then again, no one was watching ISU when Hayden decided to do it unless they were getting steam rolled by Iowa on tv that weekend. LoL.
Like California, where farmers grow food, not feed.
I see what you did there corny AF lol
It looks like the white rubber sections are black.
There aren’t very many farmers left. One of the reasons so many small towns are dying.
Doesn't show any white. Not sure about chin strap.
I like how the tiger hawk is bigger than it used to be.
It's the correct size now.

They’ll put it on after we take it off. Because they’re like that.
Maybe not but it’s portrayed that way by the media.
......................yes.
Even the NFL doesn’t wear “NFL SOCKS” any more…
Right. I guess I was thinking of crops, but you're right
What's with all the losers in here hating on ANF? It was started by Coach Fry and it supports the local farmers of Iowa. It's a great cause and should always be on our helmets.
I’m okay with the ANF sticker as long as the other side has INCW (Iowa Needs Clean Water). And I simplified that from what I really want it to say, which is IHTWCRITCSWNAELTSFP (Iowa has the worst cancer rate in the country so we need actual environmental laws to stop farm pollution)
Where is the QR code like Okie St for the direct link to NIL 😆
Wow, and some guys actually wearing knee pads as required by rule? Gone the way of the dodo bird in college...Need to go all black socks too.

This thread reminded me I’ve only been to the farmers market a few times this summer.
Need to get out & support local farmers better than I did this last year.
Does Des Moines still have their awesome farmers market on Saturday mornings downtown?

I look at the ANF sticker as a remnant of the past and a tribute to Hayden Fry and am glad it is still on the helmet. The sticker is simpler than putting a mirrored visor on every helmet with the outline of aviator sunglasses and a mustache on each facemask to honor the old coach, although I’d be okay with either option.
