Here is what 247Sports has to say about the talented young defensive back.
Versatile defensive back who could end up at corner or safety in college. Has a safety frame, shows a lot of range and does a nice job making plays sideline to sideline. Shows good ball skills, is a willing hitter and plays with a nice edge to his game. He has the athletic traits to play corner as well and shows both short area quickness, change of direction and long speed. His size and toughness is tailer made for press coverage and he plays with the kind of confidence and swagger you like to see in a corner. Where he ends up positionally will likely be determined by how much size he puts on but you love his versatility, skill set and ability to matchup with the big receivers in college football.
Wilcoxson is among four other safeties in the 2020 recruiting class, with Rashad Torrence II and also earning a four-star rating from both 247Sports and Rivals, while Tre’Vez Johnson earned a three-star rating from the two scouting services, respectively. The 2020 defensive backfield class also includes cornerbacks Jahari Rogers, Ethan Pouncey and — all dually rated as four-stars at their position — as well as Fenley Graham, who holds a three-star rating from 247Sports but a four-star from Rivals.
The talented incoming freshman had the following to say about the early start to his collegiate career in Gainesville.
“I am really exited to go to work with those guys and we have the same aspirations and it’s like everyone wants to see everyone succeed. That is a room I want to be in. I have been taking to Kaiir [Elam] a lot and he’s been telling me how stuff is going to be and the run down.”
