Cephus Harris III brings compact, downhill juice to YSU’s backfield
Cephus Harris III has shown flashes as a physical, efficient runner for Youngstown State, with season-by-season production that suggests a back who can squeeze out tough yards and keep defenses honest. In the 2023 season, he played in four games and totaled 12 carries for 77 yards, including a 57-yard outing against Valparaiso and a season-long run of 29 yards; in the 2024 season, he logged 9 carries for 18 yards. At 5'9" and 210 pounds, he profiles as a sturdy, low-center-of-gravity RB who fits a grind-it-out role, though current public stats show limited volume rather than a featured workload.
