Wilson played wide receiver at Washington State from 2010 to 2012 where he set the school's all-time receiving yardage record. As a freshman in 2010, he caught 55 passes for 1,001 yards, the third highest total in the Pacific-10 Conference behind Juron Criner and Jeff Maehl. In July 2011, he was named to the 2011 Fred Biletnikoff Award preseason watch list. On October 1, 2011, he caught a 63-yard touchdown pass with 1:10 left in the game to give Washington State a 31-27 win over Colorado.

In 2012, Wilson led the team with 52 catches for 813 yards and five touchdowns, but was suspended for one game after reportedly leaving a practice. Wilson later left the team after citing abuse by head coach Mike Leach and his staff, but he later recanted his allegations.
