Hello all. Just wanted to let Pack 9 fans know, myself and two good buddies have started the Pack Homer Podcast - completely devoted to covering the Pack 9.

Right now we are on Spotify - will hopefully have it on some other platforms as well here pretty soon. Just had Andrew Ciencin on and looking to have some other entertaining guests throughout the season. We are amateur podcasters who love Pack Baseball.

You can find it at Pack Homer Podcast on Spotify and us on Twitter/X at @packhomerpod

I noticed Corndog was filling in for Ciencin on their podcast. Quite a coup!

Cool

Just wanted to let you all know that we are now on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube.

You can also follow us on X/Twitter at @PackHomerPod

North Carolina State - Perfect Game Baseball Player College Commitments

Not a ton. Baseball recruiting is hard to follow for me.

---

BB recruiting is hard to follow because we offer some of this kids really early. Some commit as soon as they can. Then they explode and start getting looks from MLB. Throw in the portal now and it gets interesting.

that website helps plenty, looks like there is one kid in the area at Morehead that is committed to the Pack.

I know there is a Club team here in Burlington that is pretty decent, Dirtbag Baseball, ill check their site out and see who they have listed.

High school recruiting is in a state of transition as the rules just changed last year so that there can't be any contact or offers until heading in to Junior year. You have a bunch of kids who got early offers (like 8th grade early), many of who committed before the rules changed.

Recruiting timelines are definitely changing. I coached in the North Carolina State Games a few summers about a decade ago, and sometimes 1/3 of the roster would be committed by the time we went to play (these kids are all rising JR's and SR's),

I appreciate the support we've gotten so far. Again, we don't really know what we are doing, but it has been a fun break from the day to day - and we really enjoy talking about the Pack 9 and college baseball in general. Also good to be able to try and give back to the program we enjoy so much.

Episode 3 is now out - The Youtube link is below. We are of course on Apple and Spotify now as well.

The link to episode 5 is below.

We had IPS's own Alex Gee join us this week. We had to record early this week as we are all 3 all over the place with this week's work schedule. Nice to have Alex on, and hope you all enjoy!

enjoy the podcast

Episode 6 is now available. Garner HS Coach Derik Goffena joined us. He coached Jaxon Lucas and also is a GT alum. Hope you enjoy it. Sounds not as good as I'd like. I think some of the tweaks we did to try and improve it this week made it worse - but we will keep working at it.

I wasn't sure where this episode was going when I hear a couple cans get cracked open early (I listen on Apple Podcasts) but I enjoy yall just talking baseball like fans.

Also, I can relate to the story about one of y'all's dads and I noticed my allergies starting to act up for a minute there.

Pack Homer Pod Ep. 17 - Postseason at The Doak is now on YouTube. We talk about our path obviously, but also spend a little time making observations about other regionals.
