In the past two seasons, the Green Oaks football program has gone through a transformation under Coach Terrence Isaac, who in his second season led the Giants back to the playoffs for the first time in three years. Unfortunately, the Giants lost in their opening round game against Wossman, 32-26, in double overtime, but momentum for something great is building. Going into 2019, the expectations are even higher for Green Oaks as quite a few stars on both sides of the ball will return aiming to go even further in the postseason. One of the returning stars on defense is class of 2021 linebacker Jaden Moore.

Moore had a monstrous sophomore season where he had 102 total tackles, nine sacks, and three interceptions. After the season, the 6-1, 196-pound, play-maker was named first team All-District. The rising star still has two seasons left at Green Oaks but already has one college offer and is receiving interest from some big-time schools including LSU.

The class of 2021 linebacker is not only a star on the football field but he also works hard in the classroom where he has 3.7 GPA. Moore had a great sophomore season and has his eyes on even bigger junior year.

In an exclusive Recruiting News Guru interview, I sat down with Jaden to discuss his career at Green Oaks and his recruiting process.
