Manny Ellis Manny Ellis 5'8" | 165 lbs | RB Cardinal Ritter | 2026 State MO served as more of a complimentary back as a junior but he was very impressive when his number was called. He finished his junior season with 81 carries for 787 yards and 10 touchdowns. Ellis has impressive vision as a ball carrier, showing the patience to let the running lane open then hit it in a hurry once it does. Once he sees the running lane open, Ellis uses his speed to burst downhill with a sense of urgency then run away from the defense on long runs. He also played a key role on special teams as a returner and caught five passes for 31 yards as a junior. Manny currently holds offers from Indiana State and Missouri Southern, and I expect a lot of eyes to be on him as he moves into a bigger role as a lead back this season.
