2026 four-star offensive tackle Emanuel Tucker commits to Mississippi State
It is currently the dead period in college football recruiting but Mississippi State received huge news on Tuesday. 2026 offensive lineman and On3 four-star prospect Emanuel Tucker announced his Mississippi State commitment.
The 6-foot-7 and 285-pound Tucker is rated as the nation’s No. 24 offensive tackle and the state’s No. 12 prospect by On3. He also holds offers from Ole Miss, Miami, LSU, Texas A&M, Florida State, Tennessee and Auburn among others.
”I love their staff,” said Tucker of Mississippi State. “It’s just like family there and why I picked them over Tennessee and LSU.”
Last month Tucker released a Top 6 consisting of Mississippi State, Tennessee, Miami, Texas A&M, LSU and Florida State. Of late, he has built a solid relationship with new Mississippi State offensive line coach Phil Loadholt.

“It’s been going really good with Mississippi State,” noted Tucker recently. “I love the staff there and I’ve been talking a lot with Coach Loadholt, their offensive line coach. He reached out to me as soon as he got to Mississippi State and it’s been going well with him.”
With his decision, Tucker becomes the second offensive lineman commitment for the Bulldogs in the Class of 2026, joining On3 three-star prospect Jakobe Green of Niceville (Fla.) High School. He is also the fourth instate commitment in the class to go along with Iverson McCoy and Jaeden Hill of Tupelo and Jaiden Taylor of Noxubee County.
Stay tuned for more comments from Tucker.
