In a significant development for college football, five-star quarterback Tavien St. Clair has committed to the Ohio State Buckeyes, choosing them over programs like Alabama, Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, and Tennessee. St. Clair, born on June 23, 2006, in Bellefontaine, Ohio, has been a standout at Bellefontaine High School. His high school career includes 2,453 passing yards and 25 touchdowns as a sophomore in 2022, and 3,083 passing yards with 37 touchdowns as a junior in 2023. In June 2024, he earned MVP honors at the Rivals Five Star Camp and participated in the Elite 11 quarterback competition. Rivals.com rates him as the number one overall recruit in the 2025 class.
St. Clair’s commitment bolsters Ohio State’s quarterback roster, which has seen recent high-profile additions and transfers. Julian Sayin, another five-star recruit, began his career at Alabama before transferring to Ohio State in 2024. Additionally, Air Noland, a four-star quarterback from Georgia, initially joined Ohio State but transferred to South Carolina in 2025. These movements highlight the dynamic nature of college football recruiting and the competitive environment among top programs.
St. Clair’s decision underscores Ohio State’s continued success in attracting elite quarterback talent, positioning the Buckeyes for sustained competitiveness in the coming seasons.
