TL;DR Farrell upset because a kid will get a rightful bump after some great camp's... and yes there will be a slight bump from committing to tOSU...

edit: Farrell claims to have him as a HIGH 4* and he's just upset by the "old Bama Bump .... now called the old Blue Chip Bump"

It’s almost like the best programs in the country are really good at evaluating HS football talent and people at recruiting sites follow their lead to also look “smart” when the players top programs target (especially at positions of historic success for that particular program) do turn out to be good more often than not.

Tavien St. Clair debuts at #135 on the updated Rivals 2025 list
Honestly that's about right for him at this time. His junior season could push him even higher.

STOCK UP FOR QB TAVIEN ST. CLAIR​

While Underwood might be the lone five-star quarterback right now, plenty of arms will likely push for that same status at some point over the next year or so. That group includes Tavien St. Clair, who entered the Top247 back in May after Cutter Boley reclassified to 2024, and now sits No. 35 overall in the rankings.
The Ohio State commit improved significantly between his freshmen and sophomore seasons at Ohio’s Bellefontaine High, going from a 55 percent passer to a 70.5 percent passer. In short, St. Clair is a dynamic signal caller who can layer the football like few others his age.
“At the Under Armour Ohio camp in March and the Elite 11 Ohio Regional in April, it was apparent both times that Tavien was a national prospect,” Trieu said of St. Clair. “He really looked the part as far as how he was built, but he threw the ball cleanly and consistently. He had a lot more polish to him than we even expected. Combine that with the production he has had – the improving completion percentage and how well he takes care of the ball – and you have the picture of a top-end quarterback recruit. He is athletic enough to make plays with his feet, but he can also stand in the pocket and make throws, and that is what the blue-chip quarterbacks of 2023 look like."
Other quarterbacks inside the updated Top247 include: George MacIntyre (No. 11), Husan Longstreet (No. 57), Akili Smith Jr. (No. 62), Antwann Hill (No. 71), TJ Lateef (No. 95), Texas commit KJ Lacey (No. 105), TCU commit Ty Hawkins (No. 193), Duce Knight (No. 203), Bear Bachmeier (No. 213), Madden Iamaleava (No. 239), and Ryan Montgomery (No. 241).

Grapes (expletive). Love it.

Well deserved ranking bump. Kid has put a ton of work into literally everything coaches and scouts told him he needed to improve on...and he did just that. Give me this kid over every other QB in his class, he's going to put the work in on top of his raw talent. That said, I don't care where he ends up ranked, this is our guy.
