Apollo Coach Jeff Carlberg leaving to coach at Lassiter, GA

[RADIO GUY]

I understand that Coach Carlberg from Apollo is leaving to take a position at a high school in Georgia. I think he maybe going as a defensive coach, but I will be able to send more details on Sat. If this is true Apollo is losing a good good coach, which makes both Coach Gooch ( Mont. County) and now Coach Carlberg two good leaders in less than 3 years that have vacated Apollo.

Apollo is a good program why are coaches leaving?

Not sure, but I can only assume better opportunities are presenting themselves. I think one of the reasons Coach Gooch left had to do with moving back closer to some family. Carlberg must have got a pretty good offer from down South. Apollo does need some sable coaching to get program on right track, but my quess is that long term coaching at one school is quickly becoming a thing of the past.

Does the school he went to have any former Kentucky coaches at it? Does anyone know?

Any chances that the school in Ga hes going to is North Gwinnett were Spire is head coach? Carlberg was an assistant under Sphire at Lexcath.

No it is not. It is Lassiter High School in Marietta Georgia.

I wish Jeff the best if he is leaving. I appreciate the short time I got to know him.

If it is Lassiter I would be excited as it appears they want a winner. Check out maybe the nicest field in Georgia H.S.

The coach of Lassitier High Chip Lindsey ( former Hoover High School assistant ) got in contact with Carlberg thur Spire, where Spire and Lindsey had worked together in the 7 on 7 camps together. A relationship had developed and Lindsey like what he saw from Carlberg summer '07 when Apollo was at a 7 on 7 with Hoover and other teams. A great great catch for Lassitier and a big loss for Apollo. However it is a great opportunity to get in with a program that continues to grow in the very top notch South.
