From GCT Champion to PHS Head Baseball Coach | Jacob Giles
About this episode
Jacob Giles discusses his journey from a state champion player to the head coach of the Paragould Rams baseball team.
Paragould Rams Head Baseball Coach Jacob Giles joins The Paragould Podcast ahead of a huge week for baseball and softball in our city as Paragould and Greene County Tech host the 5A State Tournaments. Jacob shares about growing up in Greene County, winning a state championship at GCT, pitching at Harding University, and the unexpected path that led him into coaching. He also talks about returning home to Paragould, taking over the Rams baseball program, and what he’s learned about leadership, teamwork, and building culture along the way. The conversation also explores the impact of the new turf fields, the challenge of leading young athletes, and what makes a truly great teammate. With 32 teams from across Arkansas coming to Paragould this week, this felt like the perfect time to sit down with one of the people helping shape baseball in our community.
