Watch: Ohio State quarterback commit Tavien St. Clair launches a throw to the moon

There was some surprise when 2025 quarterback Tavien St. Clair made his verbal commitment to Ohio State.

It’s not that the in-state signal caller wasn’t good enough, it was that the Buckeyes have been chasing other targets for much longer. It’s hard to argue with any offer that Ohio State makes with the position — head coach Ryan Day’s track record has earned him plenty of slack.

Regardless of the situation, the Buckeyes found the cornerstone of their 2025 recruiting class in St. Clair and there are glimpses of why Ohio State wanted him. His frame changed since the end of his sophomore year and with it strength.

St. Clair got an arm that is much more live, and this clip he shared on Twitter backs that up. He launches a ball over 70 yards, showing he has the arm strength to play for the Buckeyes.

St. Clair stands 6 feet, 3.5-inches, and weighs 210 pounds. He is ranked as the No. 17 quarterback and 238th overall prospect in the 2025 class according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings. If he continues his upward trajectory like many of the previous Ohio State recruits, St. Clair’s ranking will improve before he ends up in Columbus.
