since the moment I saw the first rep of his 2026 film. The first time PRzMN got to see Finn in person was this past summer during preseason high school 7v7 action under a hot Minnesota July sun. However, the 6’3, 200 lb. eye-catcher was playing WR for Stillwater, and I did not know his name. He played well, catching a TD if I remember correctly, but I couldn’t nail down his name and published the recap without him in it. After some asking around later, I found out that the player was Finn, and he had transferred to Mahtomedi right before the season began to really shake things up. Little did I know that he was going to play quarterback for the Zephyrs, and after a long day of grinding tape for the now-released 2026 rankings, I was startled and left in awe by Finn’s in-you-face arm talent littered throughout his junior tape.
However, things get a bit messy when you start digging into the stats. Maht only went 3-7 in 2024, and Finn went 48 of 123 (39%) for 970 yards and 12 TDs to 5 INTs as a junior. That’s far from ideal accuracy, but the talented gunslinger is also up to 6’3, 210 lbs. now, and is a LHP and first baseman for Maht’s baseball team in the spring. Finn opens his tape with a Russell Wilson-esque moonball of a deep skinny post that seemed to touch the sky before dropping precisely into the bucket of the awaiting receiver’s arms, and right in between the burnt CB and safety rolling over top I must add. Second play keeps the good times going, as Finn is rolling to his left before stopping his feet right before the sideline, juking out a would-be rusher, and then hurling a ball off his 50 yards (I’m not kidding) off his back foot, right over the paws of a leaping and outstretched Spring Lake Park DB, and right into his wideout’s hands. Two SLP DL were bearing down on him as well. Third rep sees Finn snap the ball out of his left wrist downfield nearly 50 yards downfield to hit a streaking wideout in stride again in what looked as effortless as a simple slant route. Three of the better throws I saw while scouting QB tape for PRzMN, and that’s coming from what is the best QB class in Minnesota since 2012. The lefty displays great touch on his vertical throws a quick release and gets the ball out of his hand with urgency, and smooth mechanics. He shows one of the biggest arms in the state and can push the ball vertically with exceptional ease and with accuracy, as well as throw off-platform and from various untraditional arm angles with pressure bearing down on him. He’s also mobile, and can extend plays with legs and throw well on the move. Definitely curious to see where that overlap of raw talent to below average accuracy devluges, making Finn a good choice for one of the Biggest Mysteries/Most Upside 2026s in Minnesota.
