Comment: As a sports team nickname the Crimson Wave is every bit as cool as the Crimson Hawks, the Crimson Tide or the Crimson Storm. And it may be THE coolest when stacked up against other “waves” like the Tulane Green Wave or OSU-Marion Scarlet Wave. And no, Crimson Wave has NOTHing to do with the current Iowa Hawkeyes discolored samples scandal.
