It probably am wrong, but that looks to be the Head Coach of 2008 State Champion Sanford Seminole.  If this is him, I don't remember his name, but his mother is a very nice lady. lol

not him and that was Mike Cullison.  I saw him last year at the Seminole vs Apopka playoff game.

Thank you Badbird. I remember that 2008 team got on a real hot streak in coming from behind and beating several great teams, including Northwestern in the state title game,. They were getting beat on both lines against Spruce Creek, but then Andre Debose caught a screen pass on 3rd-and-15 for about a 70 yard TD, Ray-Ray Armstrong made a few plays, and the Seminoles pulled away.

Binky Waldrop Charlotte High School 1999-2019. HC for  21 seasons, 168-72. Had a great staff including our OC and DC who were former head coaches that had a hell of a run together. His first coaching job was  at cross town rival, Port Charlotte.

Bink was Twice Coach of the year, 17 Playoff appearances  made it to 7 Regional finals in some of the toughest classifications with teams like St Thomas, Venice, Booker T, Armwood, Carol City. Tough to win a title in that company with kids from a retirement community.

Believe his was the first West Coast Team to beat St Thomas Aquinas in the playoffs (2002 Regional Title Game) 28-21. Great Home Grown Coach that got the most out of teams that almost always lost the eye-test with the others on the field. I played at Charlotte and had three sons play for him and couldn't have asked for a better experience for them. 

Replaced by Wade Taylor, another home grown Tarpon.

That's Awesome, Congrats Coach Sammy! Ft Myers is a great program and the pair of them built it. Charlotte's oldest and most respected rival since 1926.

Ironic that Sammy and Binky played over each other for their respectve schools and ended up in a long coaching career against each other. Such great legendary games, and I can't imagine another rivalry in the state that has had as many last minute turnarounds (or double OT in a  Regional Final) as this series.  

And you got to see  a half dozen as the Ball Boy!

Silver King has finally joined this message board? This is a very exciting development, but I just hope that the senile old man doesn't decide to join my good message board friend from Charlotte.

Don't think you have nothing to worry about with Neutral.... He cant rant and rave all things BLM over here and since he hasnt talked football in about 10 12 years i think he will just keep talking to himself over on flvarsity lol.

Neut contributed football wise, knew his stuff, but he was more of an editorial page guy and this time of year we'd all get a little too far off topic.  The regulars who came back during the season were some pretty astute/connected football guys (Like the Manatee crowd). Then it started getting barraged by the scam/trolls.

FlA Va  will always hold a special place for me - I met some good guys there like the late-great Blue-2 (Who even went and watched my youngest play at a game I couldnt make up in St Pete, and introduced himself afterwards), some true characters, and a few of us even got together before games, on the sidelines or at Wave's retreat in Ruskin. I wrote my first of 11,700+ posts after Charlotte beat St Thomas Aquinas right after Oracle,  their famous baiter,  said they were coming over for their "Annual playoff tune -up on the West Coast." Plus it was a great Friday night get-home-from-the-game and check the first hand views of a few important, or even not so important games.

Perspective, I asked the man a simple question after he made a big deal criticizing the Floyd of Rosedale trophy awarded to the winner of Iowa and Minnesota, and not only did he refuse to answer my question, he called me every insult he could think of. All I wanted to know was if Ohio State had a 'trophy" game that they played with another Big 10 team, and he just went off on me. At that point, I figured that was my time to retire from that message board, and I haven't visited there since.

Is Oracle another morph of that clown Los canes?

He's been a few other morphs - thats what they told me anyway; that he was over here doing his same scorched earth thing for a new audience. He might be out to pasture by now.

If that is Los he can be found over in prep gridiron national board 

 

He is as out of touch and clueless as he was in his annoying yet brief appearance on this board where he was banned about 10 times within a month lol

So, why are you telling me this?  B)

Yeah man I agree, many don't understand the long standing history we have and the bond we have created with several people that board.  I can let it go but luckily through it I have made some life long friends.

It looks like I mixed up Perspective and Peezy28. I didn't realize that it was Peezy that sent me the message about the senile old man, not Perspective. I guess the P messed me up. lol

People confuse me and Peezy all the time because we look so much alike, right Peezy?   B)

No worries, Jambun.  All's good.

    • I was actually itching to treat some wager some money on some sports matches that are happening above-board now. I wanted to let you guys identify that I did spot what I ruminate on to be the kindest site in the USA. If you fall short of to get in on the spirit, check it out-moded: [url=https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/]https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/[/url]
    • 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.
