Michigan already knew it was getting something in four-star wide receiver Roman Wilson from Honolulu (HI) St. Louis.
The speedster who runs a clocked 4.37 40-yard dash signed with the Wolverines on Wednesday, but just because his recruitment is now fully over doesn’t mean that he’s done putting highlights on film. And he did so in front of a national audience.
In the High School Bowl Series, televised on ESPN, on Saturday night, Honolulu (HI) St. Louis took on powerhouse Ft. Lauderdale (FL) St. Thomas Aquinas. Down 7-0, St. Louis needed to get on the board, and the team’s quarterback winged it towards the end zone, where Wilson plucked the ball out of the air, despite being well covered.

But that’s not all.
Wilson further showed his athleticism in a tweet he personally shared. His quarterback looked down field, hesitated, went through his progressions and found the Michigan signee underneath. While the play didn’t go much further, some acrobatics got it a little bit further, as Wilson, with seeming ease, hurdled the St. Thomas Aquinas defender who came in to make the initial tackle.
