The Tennessee Vols are one of six programs still in the mix for 2026 four-star offensive lineman Emanuel Tucker.
Tucker, 6-foot-5/290 lbs from New Albany, MS, included Tennessee in his top six this week, along with Miami, Mississippi State, LSU, Texas A&M, and Florida State.
"Tennessee is a good place to be," said Tucker to 247Sports of his interest in the Vols. "I've been to Knoxville many times on trips with my family and we've had a lot of fun down there. It was great. I love it. Also my family loves it. That's why I could see myself being a part of the Vol Nation."
Tucker is rated by 247Sports as the No. 17 offensive tackle in the nation and the No. 8 player in the state of Mississippi.
Tennessee currently has six players committed to its 2026 recruiting class, which is ranked No. 5 in the nation.
