Peyton Siva

[mhall]

The article in the CJ about Siva and his family coming to his final home game was just fantastic. There is also a nice article about his father giving a speech at Wayside Christian mission in their flyer that circulates that I also read. I have wanted to strangle him a few times in four years but one thing I have nevered waivered from was the fact that he is an awesome kid.
Just a marvelous young man that lives the way you are suppose to and gives of himself all the time and asks nothing in return.

Well done Peyton you are a fine young man and deserve every accolade you recieve..

Couldn't agree more. The article about him talking his dad out of suicide was touching early this season was moving!

If all the college kids were like him and Deing this world would be a better place.

Although I had known of him saving his father I had never read this particular piece. Very nicely done...

I've heard some folks on here downing him for the Tat's and stuff but how can you not get behind a kid like this. I don't care what team you pull for a good human being is just that and needs to be looked at in a kind way for that if nothing else. Basketball is a game, life isn't...

He truly is a good young man.

As for the tatoos; I don't like them but that is a generational thing. My son has a number of them and if you watch the players; it is more rare when they do not have tatoos.

I wish Peyton and Dieng the best.

All I heard about him is good things. As far as the tats go......it's a good thing he is an athlete because the everyday man or woman that works and makes a decent wage isn't covered from head to toe with them. A lot of folks have one or two but most are hidden from view by clothing. I could care less who has what on them with tats. I find the tats interesting to look at anyway.....some are amazing and beautiful.

I know there are good things to be said about him but i think he plays like a thug. Maybe not to the extent of demarcus cousins but he always has an attitude about him. It really shined in the game against nova last night
