Zeman was actually as good a kid as you would ever meet. He was pretty much all they had and still made it to the finals. I do believe he played most of the 2nd half with a separated shoulder. Those Zeman brothers were tough kids. I remember him cutting a cast off his wrist to play one game.

I agree 100 percent was my son closest teammate and he said he got to watch him do amazing things. Top 5 ever to play there and even better young man

I’m sure he was a great kid. I think it was actually a broken collar bone but I could be wrong. I don’t think you were posting on here back then.  I went back and forth with those guys all week. I knew when I watched film that Marion wasn’t beating Peabody 

Blake was born a year too early. You're correct, it was a broken collarbone. As Coy mentioned, he was a one man band. If he would've been on the 15 squad I think MC would have pulled it out over Trezevant. He is definitely top 3 all time to wear the Purple and White in my mind.

You guys had a great team in 14 Tide

I stand corrected. I was at the game with family and thought it was a shoulder injury. No I wasn't on in those days. I followed all the local teams and cheer them all on. I like to take jabs for fun but these young men around here in the valley have "IT" whether it's Marion, So Pitt, Whitwell, Sequatchie, etc... this area is loaded with good ball players. It's a testament to good upbringing, good coaches, good talent, and just wanting to be the best. We are very fortunate to have the teams we have here on Friday nights and a lot of people take it for granted and won't pay $7 or $8 to watch them. Then you have some who thinks what they paid to get in funds the program. Look at the video board at SP. That's not from ticket sales. Marion wearing Titans Sensor vests in practice and in games. They're not cheap but it gets the word out to college coaches. Technology that I don't believe anyone else around here is doing. Even some colleges. That's why I get .messages daily from a coach saying he's looking for that one kid. Is it him???

    • AE has a lot of new transfers and a very good incoming freshman class to mess with the current players.  That's why I'm saying don't sleep on AE.  Many are thinking they can't get back to their winning ways but I think this 2025 team will open a lot of eyes and let the state know, AE won't be an easy win anymore.

    • Correct information on your part Waco regarding your years and wins with no generalities. if Fulmer had not been fired, he would have easily been retired for several  years by now. It’s a new regime at TN participating in the deepest football conference in America.
    • Take your own advice Mr. Bill.  Memphis should stay out of the national news if it doesn't want people knowing about their "business."  SP's classes of '25, 26 and 27 contributed as well.  At the beginning of the season, we weren't sure if SP could make it out of the 2nd or 1st round in 2024 due to only 2 or 3 seniors only 1 of which played much.  We were extremely proud of that 2024 team for what they accomplished between game 1 and game 15.
