Pine Tree’s Gary Wiley Offered By Incarnate Word

Pine Tree senior defensive end Gary Wiley became the fourth East Texas prospect in the 2018 recruiting class to pick up an offer from Incarnate Word in the last two days.

Wiley reported the offer via Twitter on Wednesday.

He joined Carthage receivers Dee Bowens and Dewaylon Ingram and Henderson quarterback Trae Hall as players offered by the Cardinals since Tuesday.

The Pirates' defender also holds Division I offers from Alcorn State and Missouri State.

Wiley finished his stellar senior season with 103 tackles (25 for loss), 13 sacks, three forced fumbles (five recoveries), and four pass break-ups.

He helped Pine Tree reach the playoffs for the first time since 2001 last season.

Incarnate Word is an FCS program located in San Antonio that competes in the Southland Conference.

The Cardinals just hired former Texas Tech assistant Eric Morris following their 1-10 season in 2017.

Wiley can sign with any Division I program that offers him on Feb. 7.
