I tend to agree this is not wilt. The yellowing veins is, in fact, a
big indicator, but the characteristics are not quite what I'd expect
to see. Also, red oaks rarely last long once infected. If it had the
fungus, I doubt it would still be alive.

Still, I'm with teh other poster--don't want to call it over the
internet. I agree you should do a google image search (or similar).
Some, but not all, oak wilt sites have a photo of an infected live oak
as well as an infected red oak. Different species will show slightly
different symptoms. You might also try a search on "Quercus * yellow
veins on leaves" or similar; it's surprising how often you can come up
with a pretty definitive diagnosis this way.

good luck,
