About Charlie
Expert Analysis
Sam Erman | Prep Redzone Scout
Ellison has a good frame and sees the field well. He shows decent footwork for his age and pairs it with a good release, consistent ball placement, and good zip on the ball. He can take some off and add some soft touch to it. He operates with confidence and looks comfortable running the offense. He’s a smart player who can work through his reads and doesn’t look sped up. There’s been plenty of flash to this point, and I think his best ball is still in front of him.

is another quarterback who stood out in his first year as a starter. In 13 games, Charlie completed 53/89 passes for 1,412 yards, 20 touchdowns, and three interceptions. Ellison is very effective in Scott County’s Wing-T offense, showing the ability to freeze the opposing defense with very impressive play action fakes. He throws an impressive deep ball, using his arm to stretch the field and touch to hit his receivers in stride. Ellison also ran the ball 42 times for 109 yards and eight touchdowns as a sophomore. Charlie holds an offer from Eastern Kentucky and I can see more coming his way heading into his junior year.

is another 2028 quarterback who has seen a significant jump in our rankings. In 13 games this season, Ellison completed 53/89 yards for 1,412 yards, 20 touchdowns, and three interceptions. He puts a nice amount of touch on his passes, leading his receiver to a spot where only they can make a play on the ball. Ellison has also shown the arm strength to stretch the field in the deep passing game. He also proved to be reliable as a ball carrier, running the ball 42 times for 109 yards and eight touchdowns this season. Charlie currently holds an offer from Eastern Kentucky and I expect more to come his way over his final two season.

led Scott County to an impressive win over Cooper last week, completing 9/10 passes for 308 yards and four touchdowns. Ellison was very effective with play fakes which is an essential part of the Cardinals’ offense, showing the ability to draw the attention of opposing defenders with ease. He also showcased an impressive ability to throw the deep ball, using his arm strength to stretch the field and ball placement to put the pass in a spot where only his intended receiver could catch it. Charlie currently holds an offer from Eastern Kentucky and I can see more coming his way as he continues to develop over the next few years. Ellison and the Cardinals have an intriguing quarterfinal matchup ahead of them this week against a talented Woodford County team.

is another quarterback who served as a backup as a freshman but he still put together some solid film. Ellison is an accurate passer, showing the ability to get the ball out of his hands quickly and hit his receivers in stride. He has also shown impressive toughness in the pocket, showing the ability to stand tall and deliver passes while taking on contact. Charlie has also shown the ability to tuck the ball and pick up yards on the ground as a ball carrier. Ellison is a player who I expect to have a lot of eyes on him this season as he will likely take the reins as the starting quarterback.
