Physically, Wilkins already is built like a college player from head to toe. His speed is better than average, and his cutting is terrific. Wilkins, who competed at Ole Miss, does a great job changing direction without sacrificing much speed, which illustrates how advanced his footwork is. As a pass catcher, he ran solid, crisp routes, which allowed him to consistently get separation.

In Week 1, he rushed for 159 yards on 10 carries. In Week 2, he added 237 yards on 26 attempts. Additionally, Wilkins has scored seven touchdowns.
"I'm a lot better this year," Wilkins said. "I'm more physical. And I hit the hole a lot harder."
| According to the article, he claims offers from Memphis, MTSU, Miss. State, Ole Miss, Tennessee. | |

Wilkins, who boasts early offers from Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Tennessee, is a versatile player who can be a power back when needed but also has all-purpose traits. A physically mature junior, Wilkins looks great in pads, which is a nice starting point. When carrying the football, he combines excellent vision with good instincts, nice speed and terrific overall athleticism. He also has very good control of his body.
Wilkins' cutting is exceptional, and he has the ability to quickly regain his speed after making a move. He uses his body and strength to his advantage, particularly when trying to elude defensive backs. It isn't uncommon for Wilkins to stiff-arm a defender or simply lower his shoulder and attempt to run them over. The only knock is that perhaps he runs upright a little too much at times.

| If this kid played at MUS or CBHS he would get more exposure. His squad has been bad in the past and they do not play any games with exposure outside of the two aforementioned teams. | |

| He ran extremely well. Very quick, elusive. Broke several long runs for TDs. Briarcrest's defense isn't anything more than average, but Wilkins was amazing tonight nonetheless. | |

Just will not have the blocking.
Hat's off to the kid though. He absolutely carried SBA to victory. | |
