Eugene Wilson

School: Gaither

Hometown: Tampa, FL.

Height: 5-11

Weight: 175

Position: receiver

247 Ranking: 4-star

Recruited by: Keary Colbert

Enrollment date: Summer of 2023

Notable: Wilson missed some time this year due to an injury but when healthy he a really good season. Wilson’s speed is something the Gators are missing in Gainesville as Wilson is a guy that should be able to help the Gators as a freshman next year.

Quotable: “It was good,” Wilson said on his talks with Keary Colbert. “Being there, I saw it was more bigger receivers and not too many that got quickness and things that I could bring to the table. Don’t get me wrong the receivers there look great but I’m sure that’s where they see me playing a role.”
