Want to attack with the latest every day Recruitment in Georgian football the information? This is the intel. This rep is recent with 4 star LB Raylen Wilson. He is ranked No. 5 in the nation and No. 72 overall prospect for 2023 in the 247Sports composite ratings.
=============================================== === ====
Raylen Wilson, the son of former NFL wide receiver Robert Wilson, is a special athlete.
He will return kicks, play offense and definitely lock down center field as a linebacker for his Lincoln High School football program in Tallahassee.
Wilson, who just turned 17, also runs track. In the spring, he set a personal best time of 10.91 seconds over 100 meters. That’s pretty outstanding for a young man who already weighs well over 220 pounds.
It remains to be seen what Glenn Schumann and Kirby Smart can achieve with another notable athlete like this in the teeth of the Georgia defense.
The former Michigan engagement has made a new college decision. He’ll be a ‘Dawg. The country’s No. 4 LB prospect and No. 71 prospect overall shared that word via his social media today.
Wilson is a special athlete because his late father influenced all of his children. They are all remarkable athletes.
“It’s really because of all the work that my dad put on me and my siblings on the track and field and the soccer field when we were kids,” Wilson said this summer. “He drummed that into me if it would be me [at his size] I had to run like a little man and I do.”
Blow like a jackhammer. Run like a slot receiver. That’s what Wilson does.
His father always told him that.
“My dad passed away in 2020 and he has been my why my entire life and will forever be my why,” Wilson told DawgNation this summer.
Wilson’s engagement story would be incomplete without sharing how his father shaped Raylen’s football career.
“I’m giving you the recipe to be great at football,” Wilson said while retelling his father’s words. “You have to take it to the kitchen.”
And the recipe was?
“I had to be willing to work hard every day and listen to everything he said to me,” he said. “And I’ve done that ever since.”
