Barbour expressed his desire to see the Bulldogs sign both Wiley and Travis Smith Jr., a wide receiver from Westlake, for the 2025 class. Wiley himself acknowledged the potential of playing alongside Smith, stating that having two big and talented players on the field simultaneously would be overpowering and difficult for defenses to stop. He also mentioned that the addition of such a duo, along with Barbour’s presence as a tight end, would make the offense unstoppable.
During his sophomore year, Wiley received an offer from Georgia after a game visit. Former coach Bryan McClendon was impressed by Wiley’s ability to get off the ball quickly and run precise routes. Wiley has been training with Edwards since middle school, and he credits Edwards for his development, especially in terms of route running.
In January, Wiley attended Georgia’s “Junior Day” where he had the opportunity to speak with Coach Smart. The visit left a positive impression on him, as Coach Smart expressed the team’s interest in him and praised his skills. Wiley considered Georgia to be among his top schools and expressed his desire to make a decision before his senior year, preferably during the summer. Alongside his academic aspirations in the computer field, he emphasized the importance of a strong coaching staff-player connection, a winning program, and a school that offers a suitable major.
To enhance his own skills, Wiley studied several college receivers in the fall, including Rome Odunze from Washington, Brenden Rice from USC, and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint from Georgia. He observed their techniques, such as their ability to get off the ball quickly, run precise routes, and analyze defenses.
