Michael Wilson was a four-start recruit that joined Stanford as a member of their 2018 recruiting class. Wilson finished sith on the team in receiving yards as a true freshmen behind future NFL draft picks JJ Arcega-Whiteside, Kaden Smith, and Colby Parkinson. The following season, Wilson would lead Stanford in receptions (56) and receiving yards (672), while scoring five touchdowns.
Wilson caught 19 passes in his first four games in 2020 before his season ended due to injury. The injury would cost him most of the next season too as he only played in the final four games of the 2021 season, but did record 19 receptions for 261 yards. Returning for a final season in 2022, Wilson recorded 26 receptions for 418 yards and 4 touchdowns in the first six games before unfortunately suffering another season-ending injury. In his final 14 career games, Wilson put up 64 receptions for 864 yards and five touchdowns.
