Hard to imagine this kid appears totally undiscovered. We have a young guy on our roster now from his school don´t we? I can only assume that given that his HUDL highlights are from his sophomore year that he was playing behind a stud this year so he didn´t get on the field?
Did they have a starter in 2013 that was one of the big names this year?

The biggest recruiting battle for Wilson may be the one waged in his own living room. He and his wife Tina will be moving the Athens area with a prospect of his own in tow. Caleb Wilson is a 6-foot-3, 180-pound quarterback drawing recruiting interest in both football and basketball. He’s a rising junior, or Class of 2015.
“He’s excited about the new opportunity,” Wilson said of the Starkville High star. “Obviously it’s always a tough transition for a young guy like that. But he’s excited about coming there and excited about the competition level he’s going to get at Georgia.”
As for which school will land Caleb and his little sister Colby, 12, Wilson said he’s staying out of that.
“Mom is all about academics and people, so that will be up to her,” Wilson said with a laugh. “She’s No. 1 on that deal. I wish my boy good luck on that because Mom’s going to determine it.”
Clearly a savvy recruiter as well.
not a rivals member so I am not sure if it is discussed in the article, but the family lived in Boulder when he was younger. Chris Wilson coached under Barnett. Wilson's name was also rumored as a potential replacement for Greg Brown if Embree had been retained a third year.He played in Georgia his sophomore year because his dad was the d line coach for Georgia and is now the d line coach for USC. The starting qb last year was Jalen Greene who signed with USC.
PRich spent his senior year at Junipero Serra, which is one of the top HS for talent in the country.
Here are the kids just from the 2015 class - and Wilson isn't even on this yet.
Posted on twitter that he's camping here on the 18th.
He played in Georgia his sophomore year because his dad was the d line coach for Georgia and is now the d line coach for USC. The starting qb last year was Jalen Greene who signed with USC.
Some timeline issues here. He just enrolled at Serra. Never backed up Greene and did not play in GA as a Soph.
His hudl highlights say sophomore highlights and they're from Georgia. Also, I never said he backed up Greene, someone asked who the started for Serra was last year.
I didn't say you did. Clearly that question was asked because he didn't play as a Jr.
My mistake, but I'm pretty sure he did play as a sophomore.
He did. It was at Starkville when his dad was at MSU. Here are posted stats from that year: http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/caleb-wilson/Tcqxo_TtEeKZ5AAmVebBJg/gendersport/football-stats.htm
Played in Starkville as a Sophomore. In 5 games, replaced the starter who was injured (the starter was a commit at MSU). Moved to Georgia in 2013 with his dad. Was injured. Reports are he missed almost the whole year, but I haven´t found any stats of him playing a snap in Georgia.
Dad moved on to USC this year and he was choosing between 2 schools and decided on Serra and is now enrolled there.
Given that much of the higher end programs have chosen their QB, and few of them are going to want to take a flier (unless he is the 2nd QB taken), I would think we could have a real shot here. Not sure what pops thinks about his kid playing at another Pac school and have to play against him every year against a Pac12 South team?
But if we offer and he commits and then blows up this year, it could be the get of the decade!
Pops seems to be a real "rolling stone" as an assistant coach---three schools in three years? Who knows where he'll be coaching next year or the year after anyway?
