He put up silly numbers
Wilson was a stat monster as one of the most prolific players to ever go through Wyoming.
But it wasn’t just within the context of Wyoming that Wilson was impressive. Here’s how he ranked among the entire FBS, per Scott Breen of Montana Sports:
“Among active players in 2019, he ranked: No. 1 among FBS players in the nation in Career Defensive TDs scored (4), No. 1 among active FBS players in Career Solo Tackles (253), No. 2 in Career Total Tackles (421), No. 4 in Career Interception Returns for Touchdowns ( 2), No. 6 in Career Total Interceptions (10), No. 6 in Career Solo Tackles per Game (4.87) and No. 8 among active FBS players in Career Total Tackles per Game (8.10).”
