Glen Davis was the second biggest baby ever born in Louisiana, right behind Kramer Robertson. True story.

With his size and footwork, I bet he could have made a great tackle.

Wasn't Glen a top 5 rated tackle coming out of high school?

The only concussion I’ve ever had came when I tried to hit him high in practice and he lowered his shoulder

We used to play him at LB and DT some also. A man that large shouldn’t move like he did.

I met Big Baby in the locker room at a high school Basketball game. Super nice guy who probably could have been a star in football or basketball

No he played until his senior year when he made the choice to focus on basketball exclusively. It worked out for him I’d say.

Played against him in basketball when was at UHigh, and temple was a freshman. They beat the frick out of us. He was unstoppable, and a complete clown.

Also played against st martinville when D Mitchell was a senior and Early douchet was a freshman. Early could have been a college basketball player for damn sure if that's what he wanted to focus on. They were insanely good.

My favorite Big Baby story… his freshman year, I was taking a break in the quad. He’s hanging out within earshot of me with some other basketball players… up walks Trina… just your average college black chick, but wearing arse hugging shorts and walking like she knows how to use them to her advantage…


She walks up to Glen… says, “lemme see ya hat..”

He takes it off and shows it to her… she looks at the sticker under the brim and hands it back…

She then sort of cocks her head sideways and angles her eyes and looks him up and down for a few seconds…

She then says, “what you is, some kinda supaman or sumthin’”… definitely wanting the d.

Glen smiles sheepishly and says “Dey call me Big Baaaaaby.”

I’ll never forget that convo.
