Siriki Diabate

One of my favorite players the last decade. He had many life obstacles and grinded to excellence. Hopefully Dino and Tony know him.

Isn’t he the one who popped that Rutgers running back, jarred the ball loose and we took it to the house? That was a hell of a hit

Terrific young man.

I remember heading to Manley with Orangeyes to watch a practice shortly after Siriki arrived on campus. He was a force on defense even as a true frosh.

We kept noting how well he was playing. But Dan had problems pronouncing his name. He ended up calling him ‘Diet Tab’. Siriki kept that nick name on the board throughout his career at Syracuse.

Congratulations Diet Tab!
