Amba Etta-Tawo thriving in final college go-round at Syracuse
Around the time Amba Etta-Tawo and his family arrived to the Peach State from Oman, the Atlanta Falcons played in Super Bowl XXXIII, taking the region by storm. They came up short of the ultimate goal but caught the attention of Etta Etta-Tawo, Amba's older brother who was bigger than most of his friends and decided to take up football.
He grew to be 6-foot-4 and weigh nearly 300 pounds, eventually signing with Clemson. He taught his three younger brothers the game, and the family got to see him take the field in Death Valley as a defensive lineman in 2006.
