Early life and high school

Wadle was born on December 20, 2005, in Greenfield, Indiana. He later attended Greenfield Central High School. His freshman season in 2020 was largely interrupted due to COVID-19. [3] He became a standout football player there, finishing his high school career with 28 receptions for 245 yards and 5 touchdowns. [4] [5]

Considered to be a top prospect from Indiana, he was previously committed to attend Georgia Tech University and Northern Illinois University. [6] [7] However, he de-committed from both of these universities prior to signing his National Letter of Intent on December 20, 2023, instead committing to play at Georgia State University. [8] [9]

He was deemed a nationally 3-star rated player by 247sports and On3 recruiting platforms [10] [11] and was considered by 247sports to be in the top 1.5% of all 2024 recruits. [12] He was also selected as ESPN's 18th highest nationally ranked tight end prospect in the class of 2024. [13]
