The Elliss Football Dynasty
Elliss a very familiar name to Utah football fans. First you have the king, Elijah’s dad, Luther Elliss, who is one of the greatest Utes of all time.
And more recently the name brings to mind Elijah’s older brother Jonah who earned consensus All-American status this past football season.
