Early life

Wall attended Yorktown High School, located in Arlington County, Virginia. As a freshman at Yorktown, Wall was 5'3" and 99 pounds. [1] Wall played quarterback, receiver, and defensive back at Yorktown and was the Arlington Sun-Gazette's offensive and defensive player of year. [2] After graduating from high school, Wall served a full-time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Maceio, Brazil from 2018 to 2020. Following his missionary service, he committed to play college football for the BYU Cougars, joining the team as a walk-on.[3][4]

College career

During his first two college seasons, 2021 and 2022, Wall was listed on the roster as a wide receiver, though he almost exclusively played on special teams and recorded no receptions.[5] Prior to the 2023 season, Wall switched from wide receiver to safety.[6] During his first season at safety in 2023, he appeared in five games with three starts, notching 22 tackles.[7] Wall was named a full-time starter at safety for the 2024 season.[8] He started all 13 games in 2024, totaling 53 tackles and three interceptions.[9] Prior to the 2025 season, Wall was named a team captain. He recorded ten tackles and an interception in a week 10 victory versus rival Utah, a performance which earned him Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week honors.[10] At the conclusion of the 2025 season, he was named to the All-Big 12 First Team.[11]
