Who Was This Electric Player? Chevelle Buie

[OldSchoolLion]

Some folks from the Muck still have nightmares about this guy.  He had one of the more memorable performances of an rb in a state final.

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!

Tarean Foltson was the second back and took over.

That was a special team.

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.

Let's not forget when he went up to Texas and put it on the defending big class Texas champ Abilene.
