About Zeke Martin
Zeke Martin was an american football player and basketball coach.
Carl Taylor "Zeke" Martin (December 17, 1884 – March 1, 1976) was a college basketball player and coach, as well as a mechanical engineer. He was a player-coach for the Vanderbilt Commodores in 1911 and 1912. He was a forward. Charles C. Stroud selected him All-Southern in 1911. According to Stroud, "Martin is not only fast on his feet, and a good shot, as every forward must be, but he is slippery and quick to dodge or wriggle from the bunch. Only a rugged guard can cover him, as he is strong at shaking free." He was once suspended from coaching the team for spending extra days on the beach in Mobile.
