Top 10 Minnesota HS football players in Class of 2024

2. Emerson Mandell, OT, Irondale

Mandell is one of the nation’s top offensive tackle prospects thanks in part to his massive size (6-foot-5, 295 pounds) and athleticism for a big man. The four-star lineman was a big-time Class of 2024 target who picked up offers from Illinois, Iowa, Iowa State, Kansas State, Minnesota and others. However, the Irondale senior chose to take his talents to Madison, Wisconsin and play for the Badgers.
