Impact Wilson has been an integral part of a college team before. The redshirt senior averaged 12.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.2 steals across his multiple seasons with Louisiana-Lafayette.

Following his college departure, he is expected to be replaced by LJ Cryer, a proven PG who transferred from Baylor.
