Wilson, a native of Green Cove Springs, FL (Clay), has not yet been rated by any of the major recruiting services.
Even though Wilson hasn’t been rated, it’s quite clear from his highlights that he’s a heck of an athlete.
The Florida native is already tall for a running back. He has the speed and vision to be a running back at the next level, but if he continues to grow he could be approaching Jalen Hurd territory. If that’s the case he could possibly end up at linebacker.
Regardless of where he plays, he’s an athlete that Tennessee obviously thinks enough of to go after very early.
Wilson currently has offers from Clemson, North Carolina, South Florida, Tulane and Virginia.
