Hosted by R. Cory Smith and Michael Clark, the Pack Pride Podcast is the official podcast of Pack Pride. A syndicated partner of 247Sports, Pack Pride is an independent publication that brings you the latest on NC State athletics. You can find us at www.PackPride.com.

Over the weekend, NC State baseball was removed from the College World Series by the NCAA due to COVID-19 protocols. As more information continues to come out, we were joined by Wolfpack Athletics Director Boo Corrigan to break down exactly what transpired and what NC State did to combat the decision.

Corrigan also discusses the events that took place, the lack of transparency by the NCAA, the AP report that contradicts the NCAA's release, the players tested prior to Friday's game that weren't able to arrive in time and much more. Cory and Corrigan also discuss the reception for the Pack9 at Doak Field and plans for a new stadium for the Wolfpack and much more.


NC State's football recruiting continues to stay red hot with three commits in a five-day span for the 2022 class all on the defensive side of the ball. Michael and Cory break down the additions of defensive backs Isaiah Crowell and Darius Edmundson and the four-star commit from edge rusher Brandon Cleveland.

What does each player add to the defense in the future? What took place for the Wolfpack to pull Cleveland out of Florida? How many spots are left after the Pack has now reached double-digit commits for the 2022 class? And most importantly -- who's next?
