| The J.V. coach's theory maybe different, which could bring another type of ball. I went to many games over the last years and our teams played hard. JV players worked hard all game. Support don't condem.

Some change of direction huh?
Nothing changes at all in chobeetown usa.
Same as the football coach. Let's not venture out of the "comfort zone".
Make sure ALL the coach's are from okee.
They ventured out of the comfort zone last time and got burned by a lying, rule breaking "know it all".
Hiring the JV Basketball coach was the best thing they could have done.

Did you read the post, piper? It said that he was offered the job but turned it down. You don't offer someone a job if "they really didn't have a chance of getting it".
We all see what you do. YOu put incorrect information out there. YOu talk about this source of yours, but then you're wrong time and again.

You do not know what you are talking about. Brian never played for Jon - he played for Delegall. You can play with D's on your report card - as long as you have a 2.0. You might want to get a better source there Piper.

You need to talk to this "source" of yours who feeds you incorrect information that you feel the need to put out there. One of the people who applied for this job is a friend of mine. He was offered the position but had to turn it down because of a family situation. I guess that shoots your "administrative plan" theory out of the water.

If they were going to fire Enrico, they should have put the time in to find someone to coach just like they are doing in football. Ah, but it's just basketball, who really cares right?
Pied, I usually agree with your stances but this time I have to respectfully disagree with you, this guy knows his stuff... However I do not know how good he will be at the other responsibility's of the job.

I heard they hired a new head football coach yesterday. The guy is from Ft. Lauderdale and he has head coaching experience. He's hispanic and they wanted him to appeal to the hispanic students.
Anyone heard any news that will confirm this report?

Retired Coach that comment about Branham and Smith is the reason I hope you stay retired. Those two guys have more knowledge and passion for football than you'll ever know.
Knowledge and passion doesn't mean you know how to coach, there are several more requirements including honesty, integrity and equality, these attributes cannot be included with the mentioned coaches, since they didn't exist.

I just hope the coach will be someone we can all be proud of and who works well with the team. The team will have a lot of work to do to continue to be that successful team we know them as. I wish them the best of luck.

They aren't even concerned about it right now. With that being said, I assume the J.V. coach will be moving on up to that deluxe apartment in the sky!
Sounds like that administrator who took over last year has some high expectations. I think that is a good thing.
The basketball position was posted on June 1st along with wrestling and flag football. http://www.fhsaa.org/classified/positions.htm

| So it took for you to see Erwin and his sons in action before you realized that they are good guys, but you knew Beckham and his actions already from the past and you followed him to Okeechobee. Character is not a strong point of yours. There's so much more to the Beckham story that no one is telling, but Brahmanman knows. He knows it all. In order to follow a man from one state to another, and leave a pretty decent college film career,lol, you have to believe in that man and his system and his operation McLovin. I would love to be in the parking lot at Okeechobee High School when Beckham is doing a operation McLovin stakeout around 3pm everyday and Brahmanman shows up for his usual stroll through the parking lot as well. That could get real interesting. Brahmanman question what if Jeremey gets the job again, will that make you leave town.lol

| BVCC thats very rude insulting a man's intelligence like that. You may like Beckham but don't go overboard calling the man a donkey or whatever. I may not agree with everything Brahmanman says or does but for you to do that is wrong.

yes I am bashing him why because I don't like cheaters. he broke rules and has done it in the past and he will again. They always do. I knew of his past a he told me last spring that one of his recruiting schemes was operatin Mclovin. Then in July he called me and said he got fired for the recruiting stuff. I had figured he elarned from his mistakes. However he didn't,and he got caught
I am about the kids, because that is the most important thing, if it wasn't I would still be wearing the blinders,and would still be saying he didn't do anything wrong.
As far as the playcalling well I was calling the plays with radebaugh, and thats a totally different story, which is not any of your buisness unless your within the coaching staff. Once again if I wasn't in it for the kids I would have been complaining about it. I am just proud of the kdis and how they finished spring ball, after a mess which someone they trusted created.
I am going out on a limb here but my guess is that they will have a new coach in place by June 15th. Then all the frmer players on here as well as everyone else can move on, give the new coach 100% support and look forward to what is going to be a great season,as there is some talent here at okeechobee, and they are going to prove it in the fall.Last edited on Thu Jun 4th, 2009 10:44 pm by brahmanman

| I'm finally sick and tired of you O'Reilly. You came down with Beckham and now your bashing him. You were never his friend in the first place. You need to move on and shut up. It's not about the kids to you it's about becoming a head coach even though you know about as much as a donkey. There's a crab mentality with you, just crawling over people to get to the top. Please move on big man. Peace out Riles while I go drop a deuce! My thing is why are you the OC if they don't even trust you enough to let you call the plays against Palm Bay.

You are right, I was upset at what happen as I was believing someone who I thought was my firend and learned from his past mistakes. I also apologized about being critical of coach Erwin. After seeing him work with the freshman the last three weeks he did a good job with them,and is not as bad of a person like I was told he was.
If I could do it all over again I would have known more about the rules,and been more aggressive in making sure the rules were being followied. However I wasn't and I was part of the staff that broke the rules. Even though I was not the head coach, I was still there and did not think twice about it because Beckham told me that he was told he could do what he was doing. As it ended up gurting the kids in the end as it disrupted spring practice with a number of kids leaving the program for whatever reason. Like I have been saying it's about the kids,and if I did not feel this way I wouldn't be saying it
Like I said that will not happen again with me. I will have a better understanding of the rules. However I don't think anything like this will ever happen again in Okeechobee because the administration has learned their lesson. Everyone has skeletons in their closets some are more prevelant and publicly known and acessible then others. I have a feeling that the next head coach at OHS will have a clean history free of any potential rules being broken. As the administration will not repeat the same mistake again,and the head coach will be guided through everything he does.
I guess you could equate Beckham to a cult leader, and he served me kool aid and I drank it, and drank it to the point that I thought he could do no wrong no matter what he did in the past. Luckily enough for me I have realized what he did wrong, I never worked with Beckham before this spring. I had met him at a couple clincis and a couple of my good friends were coaches at the university fo Cincinnatti when he was on their roster.

| okay so ive been reading this blog since it was started and all the way through, and i remember brahmanman, who we have since learned was the o.c. this spring, was ripping coach erwin and his sons saying that they were snitches, but more importantly was saying that beckham didnt deserve to be fired and that this community would regret it. he has since deleted those previous posts and is now bashing someone he considers a good enough friend to come down to chobee from wisconsin. so what happened you found out the high school really was going to release what you and the rest of the coaches did, and you completely change your tone I Bleed Purple and Gold is right, something about you is off.

You are right, I am pissed at jeremy because he told me things that when I got down here were not going to happen he did the same thing to two other assistants one of which never came down because there was no job waiting for him beside coaching.
As far as the other stuff. We never coached together at a university. I was in college ball and he has been in high school. As an assistant I was never too concerned with the rules that he as the head coach needed to make sure he followed. I was worried about coaching football and getting the kids better.
I gues I was a fool for following him down here as he never learned from his past mistakes saying that he never did anything wrong. When you screw up in life the biggest thing is to learn from your mistakes and make sure you don't repeat those types of mistakes which Jeremy Beckham has not learned from,as he still claimx that he did nothing wrong. Obviously that has been proven wrong by the administaration and the statements that they have made.
Make no mistake I am here for the kids. If I wasn't I would not be saying what I am about Jeremy Beckham. He made mistakes in Ohio as documented in the news papers and he made similiar mistakes down here at Okeechobee.
It's unfortunate as the kids suffered as some kids quit because he was not the head coach, and the numebrs dropped on the varsity. However the freshman numbers did go up.
Like I said I am here for the kids,and those are the people who matter. I was an assistant coach,and I should have paid better attention to the rules. However as Jeremy Beckham said it's his program and he is ultimately responsible and in the end he was responsible for breaking the rules. No matter what had or had not been done in the past.
Do I regret not knowing the rules. Yes because I could have said something to him. However like I said I was an assistant and he was the head coach. I will from now on know the rules of the FHSAA and let the head coach I am working for know if I think we need to re think what we are doing so we are never in the same situation again.

| I sense your hostility with it comes to Beckham for not having you a job when you came to Okeechobee. But the problem I have is that you knew this guy. You knew he was selling lemons all along. You and him coached at major universities remember. So Im going to take you back to your favorite line of you truly caring about the kids. The one thing about Jeremy that I can say is that he did things upfront in your face kind of approach, like he wanted the world to see what he was doing. So with the rules violations that where taking place I know he wasnt hiding them, he was way to bold for that. How come you never came to the for front to say anything, you know "for the sake of the kids" Or did you? But know your on here bashing Beckham and his past, and you followed him to Okeechobbe after all the other violations in Ohio at other schools that you have admitted to knowing about. So what does that say about you. All I can say is Okeechobee beware. Somethings not adding up here with Brahmanman,

I just hope the new guy doesn't break any rules, or makes promises to assistants about jobs in the district like Beckham did. As good of a coach as he was he broke the rules, and got busted for it. I don't care how good of a coach you are when you break the rules it hurts the kids more then anyone. The scary part is he has applied for other head coaching jobs in the state of florida,and from what I understand feels he will get another head job in the state despite what has been written in the paper on Tuesday.
It's time to stop complaining about why he got fired. The truth has been revealed and the reason was he broke the rules. Plain and simple people he broke the rules, and no it doesn't matter whether the rules were broken in the past. He broke them and he got caught, and therefore he got fired. Wa the timing right probably not should have waited until after spring ball for the kids sake, but the administration made a decision and I wpuld bet that in less then two weeks Okeechobee High School will have a new head football coach.

Well I haven't blown smoke up anyones butts. I cooldn't sell a cold if I tried I am to honest.Luckily for me the school administration has welcomed me,and has even welcomed me after everything that has happen with Beckham. If they wanted to they could have told me to hit the road like they did him.
I have been told by many people from okeechobee that Beckham is a great salesman, and I think pulled the wool over peoples eyes and hoped they wouldn't figure out to see what he was doing. Unfortunately he sold Okeechobee a lemon ,and they were all fired up about it when they bought it in February. As he once again was caught up in scandals like he was in Ohio with recruiting.
I am all about the kids, and helping the kids win is one of my top priority,and I know Okeechobee will win this year. The Brahmans have plenty of talent on the field and will win plenty of games this year.
Know lets just get the next coach hired,so he can get the young men at the hiogh school ready for the season and everyone can move on.Last edited on Wed Jun 3rd, 2009 07:51 pm by brahmanman

| Amen bully. Glad someone else sees the situation for what it truly is. Now that's a buddy for ya to throw you out there like that. Brahmanman let me let you in on something. You cant come into a town like Okeechobee and blow smoke up our butts like were from the backwoods somewhere. Some of us do our homework and know a used car salesman when we see one and unfortunate for you and Beckham the Brahmans are trying to win football games and not buy cars.
