Chevelle Bouie

Here's one for the Cocoa/Brevard folks on the Board!  It is Chevelle Buie, who was an electric rb in open space back in the 00's.  How many folks can say they rushed for 200+ yards in a FL state football final?  Buie is one of the few.  In the 2009 2A finals, Buie rushed for 215 yards on 27 carries against Glades Central.  That included TD runs of 37 and 62 yards.  Cocoa was up 20-13 in the fourth quarter and Buie put the nail in the coffin with about 5 minutes left when he rushed for that 37-yard TD.

For the younger folks on the Board, the Chevelle was a favorite Chevrolet muscle car of the 1960's and 1970's.  Buie certainly lived up to his name's sake!

Those 3peat teams were special. The first was a team a destiny and the others built on that strong defense.

Cocoa's defense of years past was very impressive.  I hope the change in offensive scheme (and excitement associated with it) doesn''t cause some to lose focus on what has been its bread and butter.  Honestly, it has been surprising to see them give up so many points of late.  Guess those defenses of years past spoiled me.

I agree. Biggest surprise score wise was the Treasure Coast game. But when their offense is going they can put up videogame numbers. I think the defense will be better this season. Plus their offense prepares them well for what they will see from most offenses.

They got a long way to go....but I agree they can get there  For some perspective, their 08 title team gave up 12 points per game, on average, during the regular season.  This past year, they gave up 27.  Lots of room to tighten up.

That's true but if the run was stopped for the 08 and 09 teams then those games would come down to the wire. Which is the main reason why their defenses were so rock solid. Especially that 08 playoff run. Multiple 1 point wins.

Have a rock solid defense AND video game offense and then ya'll never have to worry. LOL

The Brevard heavyweights will definitely be challenged this season and they play each other too. And they all play OOS too. Cocoa season opener against Viera and finale against Rockledge. Cocoa also plays an always feisty Heritage Palm Bay. Also Rockledge is playing 2 Georgia teams this season but haven't seen any official talks about their schedule yet either.

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
