Marquise Davis is a 4-star Running Back from Cleveland, OH (Cleveland Heights) in the 2025 class. Ranked No. 162 nationally. Composite rating: 0.9319. Committed to University of Missouri.

Physical Profile

Listed at 5-11, 200 lbs. Taller than 60% and heavier than 68% of 2025 Running Back prospects in the SEC Scouts database (114 with a listed size).

Play Style

Based on his Cleveland Heights background and four-star rating, Davis likely possesses a physical, north-south running style suited for Big Ten/SEC-caliber football. His lack of national attention despite strong rating suggests he may be a late-bloomer or possess raw talent requiring development.

Strengths

High ceiling potential evidenced by four-star rating despite minimal recruiting buzz nationally
Geographic advantage having developed in Ohio's competitive high school football environment
Represents significant recruiting value with elite composite rating but limited competition for his services

Areas to Improve

Exposure and film distribution - lack of national recruiting attention suggests limited showcase participation
Competition level assessment needed to validate rating against top-tier opposition

College Projection

Projects as an immediate contributor in Missouri's backfield rotation with potential to develop into a feature back by sophomore/junior seasons. His high rating suggests he has the tools to compete for significant carries early in his career.

NFL Outlook

With a 0.9319 composite rating placing him in four-star territory, Davis has legitimate NFL developmental potential if he can maximize his physical tools and production at Missouri over the next 3-4 years.

Best Fit

Power running schemes that emphasize physicality and between-the-tackles production, particularly programs willing to develop raw talent with high ceilings rather than seeking immediate impact players

Player Comparison

Ezekiel Elliott Ohio State • Dallas Cowboys 82% match

Elliott shares the similar 5'11" 200+ lb frame with a physical, north-south running style that translates well to power conference football. Like Davis, Elliott was a highly-rated Ohio prospect who developed in the state's competitive high school environment and possessed the raw talent and frame to excel at the highest levels despite not always being the flashiest recruit.
