I went to a UCF games against South Carolina with Emil Ekiyor a former UCF player. He is a CEO now up in Indianapolis. He played in the NFL. His son plays for Bama Emil Ekiyor Jr. and he will end up in the NFL as well. Nice guy. Immigrated from Africa and made himself a major success story in America.
I dont know if Ekiyor is a common African name or not but my niece used to date a young man named Ekiyor who played fb for RIT here in Rochester. His father was a psychologist with the Rochester School district and he worked with my wife. They were the only 2 people in the world that I had known with that name, until I just read your post. Very nice family
Maybe distant relatives. Emil was a very nice guy. I had not thought of Emil in years until I saw this thread. I was shocked that he has a kid old enough to be playing college football at Bama.
