Joe Ehrmann is a former NFL defensive lineman, originally drafted as the 10th pick in the first round of the 1973 NFL Draft out of Syracuse University to the Baltimore Colts. He was a National Football League defensive tackle from 1973 through 1982. He then played in the USFL for the Chicago Blitz, Arizona Wranglers and Orlando Renegades. After retiring from professional football, Joe became a minister and has become an inspirational speaker, preaching life lessons for young men in what he refers to as "Building Men for Others." More recently, Joe Ehrmann has become the Defensive Coordinator at Gilman School, where he and Head Coach Biff Poggi continue to teach/coach football with a 'building men for others' strategy.
Gilman Football and the lessons Coach Poggi and Ehrmann teach are featured in Jeffrey Marx's Pulitzer Prize winning book, Season of Life.
