Jaquarius “Big Baby” Green is a mammoth youngster.
The 6-foot-4, 300 pound football star already has a D-1 offer, and he is only 13-years-old. The Galesburg Register-Mail explains, “absolutely mauls opponents on the football field.”
“I’ve been this size since I was 9,” said Green, who turned 13 in June and has been playing for the 309 Punishers – a youth football travel team. “I love football. It’s fun, sometimes guys ask me not to crush them.”
The soon-to-be freshman at Peoria Manual High School is going viral for all the right reasons.
“It’s a blessing to have an offer from a D-I school, I could never afford to go to college otherwise,” said Green. “It’s amazing. I went to a tournament in Kansas City, and someone made video of me playing there and put it out there, and the next day Morgan State called and made me an offer.
“I was in shock.”

Did we mention that he also plays basketball.
“He can play anywhere on the field,” 309 Punishers founder Demarko Harris said about Green. “Literally, no one can stop him. He’s played every position on the offensive line, plus defensive tackle. He’s such a humble kid and so smart and coachable. As soon as his tape got out online, he got a D-I offer. He has a great future.”
Something tells us that his D-1 offer is from none other than the…..Alabama Crimson Tide.
