Jesus “Bobo” Wilson came to FSU as a three-star wide receiver recruit with an average player rating of 86.81.

Wilson checked in at 5’10 185 pounds and had become one of the most productive members of the 2013 class before an injury ended his 2016 season against Wake Forest.

He became one of the top receivers on the team when healthy, was second on the team in receptions in 2015 and third in yardage.

“Bobo” finished his FSU career with 133 receptions for 1,562 yards and 8 touchdowns. He was also a valuable member on special teams as punt returner. He returned 44 punts in his career for 383 yards (8.7 avg). Outstanding contributions from a three-star recruit.

Grade – A-

Wilson receives this grade because he became a major threat in the passing game as a undersized wide receiver. He made a lot of tough catches and also became first string punt returner.

His production and development as a receiver far surpassed what most thought was possible when he signed as three-star recruit.
