A Vote for Etan
Saturday, December 8th, 2012Here is a website looking for suggestions for a commencement speaker at Syracuse University. I have several suggestions, but after listening to this podcast, I am convinced that former Orangeman Etan Thomas should be considered.
Is there any athlete who is more of an activist in this current era?
To call him a Renaissance man would be appropriate.
Thomas is a former NBA player, poet, philanthropist, FOBO (friend of Barack Obama), and he has been organizing Fatherhood panels (the most recent one was moderated by SU Professor Dr. Boyce Watkins) to help redefine what it means to be a man.
Before making his mark at Syracuse University, Thomas (the son of an educator) attended the same high school as the late Wayman Tisdale, one of my favorite jazz musicians.
When it comes to role models, Etan’s got my vote.

Syracuse MC World Be Free performs the SU Men's Basketball theme song on the eve of the team's Elite Eight game against Ohio State.
To the delight of a capacity crowd of students and members of the community, Brian Freeland, aka World Be Free, performed the SU theme song last night during a benefit concert that also included Cassidy and Fabolous at Goldstein Auditorium.
For one song Be Free shared the stage with soulful singer Erika Lovette. He also got a rousing response during a song called “Dear Music.”
