Wyatt caught up with High School on SI about his current standpoint with High School football as well as recruiting plans and teams who are standing out.

“My career at Webb has been great,” The Webb School receiver confirmed to High School on SI. “Academically they push me to be great in the classroom and also show me to be a role model for the kids who are looking up to me and athletic wise they put me in the best way to be great.”

Wyatt has set some high goals for himself and his team following their above .500 season in 2024. He not only has put a big goal for his offensive performances but also on the defensive side of the football. “Goals I have for next year are to break all the records for my school in sports, 15 touchdowns, 40 tackles, and be a state champion. Team goals we wanna go undefeated and win state next year.”

Wyatt is a special athlete in the state of Tennessee, but what makes him so special? “My physicality, my height, my speed, and how I am when the ball is in my hand also I can make something out of nothing,” said Wyatt.

He has many schools standing out to him so far despite not being committed to any of the programs at this time. However, only one team has a visit scheduled with the young wideout.

“Tennessee, Florida State, Vanderbilt, Auburn, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Arkansas,  Texas A&M, Miami, and South Carolina are all standing out for me currently. I have only one visit scheduled which will be Tennessee. “I’m going to Tennessee on the 25th of this month.”

The in-state Volunteers have made a deep push for the I’m-state wideout which has caught the attention of teams all over the country. They will hope to continue to build their relationship with Wyatt as will many other teams.
