Ohio State Buckeyes Just Got MASSIVE News For The QB Position

[@8TangoCharlie]

Just wait until you see Tavien St Clair . . . this kid has got it!

[@REF49]

Yep, Tavian is the real deal.

[@REF49]

Sayin has publicly and a year, St.Clair is faster, tougher and has a cannon so both need to be equally developed. I like Tavian as well as Sayin.

[@briandiamond9033]

He’s second best

[@johnjordan2781]

I agree. If they can keep them, they should be set for the next 4 years.

[@johnjubara9867]

Tavia has all the skills but has a lot to learn.

[@philsito9774]

I personally think that getting 2 quarterbacks ready to run the offense is a key factor to look at. Keeping these young men focused on their role in their contribution to the success of the team.

[@nicholashixson3588]

Perfectly stated! O-H!

[@douglashall2141]

IO

[@paulmaddreyjr7920]

Phil is correct..long season...I'm hearing great things about #10, but I hope his physical development is @ the top of Coach Micks 2 do list. I know it is. #GoBucks

[@carlfields]

St Clair is an Ohio kid who's all in on the Buckeyes. I can see Sayin leaving if things don't go great for him. I believe the St Clair and Smith duo will be the talk of College football in a couple of years if Smith stays with the Bucks. The transfer portal and NIL has made things a big guessing game.

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

I won't be shocked if Tavian ends up starting week one. Sayin is a stud too though so it's gonna be a battle

[@southeastdaygo6193]

If St Claire is starter week 1 as a Freshman I'd be shocked. Ryan doesn't do Freshman and the last freshman QB was under Urban in JT Barrett! I highly doubt it

[@mattheweybs7966]

JT Barrett was a redshirt freshman. And so was CJ Stroud starting in 2021. Last long term freshman starter was Braxton Miller, before that T Pryor.

[@Choclate_Chip_Hoochie]

It’s Tavien bro.. Tavien seems very elite & has the size & athleticism but Sayin is just different & a true elite thrower of the ball with elite decision making, very calm & confident. He’s just different & very very similar to Bryce Young but bigger.. Him, Bryce & CJ all come from the same place playing elite competition & the only question mark for Tavien for me is he hasnt & didn’t play elite competition in high school literally at all so it will take time for him to adjust throwing in the college windows

[@melissaallen6914]

It wont happen. He doesnt know tthe playbook. Julian has a year on him.

[@thewadester]

None of those guys have played a down of a football yet?? Wow, y’all don’t follow the Buckeyes closely enough to give a credible take on the QB situation. Keinholz played almost the entire Cotton Bowl against Missouri, and both he and Sayin have played clean up duties for us in the 4th quarter several times. But anyway… O-H!

[@rodnalley420]

My comment says the same lol

[@buckguy1215]

The thing is, Ohio State doesn't need a QB to come in and be game changer. They just need an accurate QB to come in and manage the offense as they get better throughout the year. Whoever it is, most likely Julian Sayin, just needs to distribute the ball to, once again, the BEST WR corp in college football. Get them the ball accurately in space and watch them rack up the yards to pad your stats and theirs.

[@slim-y6b]

As the QB whisperer Day is, he knows he's got a real good one. Actually he's got three real good ones. Don't count out Lincoln K. Tavion SC is also a real good future QB.

[@mr.ohiostate2544]

This tells me Sayin is progressing well.

[@davidhastings9740]

Julian Sayin is my choice to see as our Buckeye quarterback. He showed some great abilities as a backup. 👍

[@stevevogel6762]

also when you got #4 and # 17 and 11 be good also. But there is a running back named people's . remember it folks . He is good and Purdue transfer is real good He will take some of the pressure off. The offensive line has got to be sound. this is Ohio State there is no excuse for having bad line. Offensive line is key.

[@330wiz7]

All NFL receivers. Ppl don’t know abt Innis yet.

[@StephenHankins]

Never seen college talk you guys are good

[@jangorh]

I agree with this 100%. At a certain point, you gotta make a young guy the new starter, there’s no reason to perpetually go into the transfer portal when you seem to always have a QB room full of five stars. On top of that this year proved emphatically that you can have a young guy come in and it’s OK to lose a game or two and that’s no longer a season ender which is a huge weight off of a program and especially now that Day has a natty under his belt that’s the weight of the world off his shoulders too

[@paulmaddreyjr7920]

Like most, haven't seen much, but the talk is Julian and his unknown ceiling 🤔🤔🏆❤️🏈💯🩶

[@Choclate_Chip_Hoochie]

Devin Brown been there 4 years competing for the job but doesn’t hesitate to enter the transfer portal when opening after Sayin being there all season same goes for Air to, we didn’t have 1 qb enter last year or the year before. This tells me Sayin is legit & no one’s beating bro

[@raphaelturner1963]

Facts

[@Onetime614]

Tavien St. Claire will compete because he is definitely legit.

[@AcuNinjaGal]

Just SAYIN’ Tavien St. Clair will work his way later…

[@emayesjohnson]

Not sure why folks are overthinking this. It’s Julian Sayin the next 2 years and St Clair after that. They don’t need to hit the portal at all.

[@WillJohnson6250]

Facts

[@melissaallen6914]

U r so smart. St. Clair is great but he needs coached up on the college level.

[@lcidon]

I’m happy to see a QB competition between Dt. Clair, Sayin, and Kienholtz. Based on media reports, Sayin probably has the inside edge, with Kienholtz likely destined to provide depth. I’m super jazzed about St. Clair’s future as QB1 though

[@zackjalamani]

Let the three compete and the best can be the starter

[@AngryOtter614]

What's the massive news?

[@CM-rg9zg]

Tavien looks like the one

[@rhoadesroy]

Julian Sayan is a great quarterback, but don't sleep on Tavien St Clair. He is a really good quarterback. At OSU you have to earn the right to start.

[@djrh3690]

I don’t care about “seniority”, QB1 to whoever EARNS it!!!

[@nicholashixson3588]

Hell Yeah!

[@CarlaJenkinsTV]

4:22 Nobody has played a down of football yet? Lincoln played backup when Devin Brown got hurt in the 2023 Cotton Bowl. Julian Sayin was QB3 behind Will Howard and Devin Brown this year. They must not watch a whole lot of Buckeye football.

[@rodnalley420]

Fact check.... Sayin has played in 2024. Not only played, he has thrown his first TD pass as well...

[@Rod-w1j]

Use 2 qbs,shake things up.

[@mr.ohiostate2544]

In the spring yes, not the season

[@chrisperry4143]

It's funny to hear national people talk about the Buckeyes. Usually have a key fact or two wrong.

[@calebleeson5662]

Gotta be Tavien or Julian. Lincoln just doesn’t have the same ceiling and he’s got less eligibility. If we can develop one of the other 2 guys we’ll be golden

[@Lisaloveshearts]

Tavien St Clair is a monster.

[@timothydavidson6607]

Defense! Defense! Defense! Wins chips. That said give both 5 Star QB's equal time so one doesn't consider the portal

[@Stardust713-y6e]

YOU might wanna look ahead immediately, but I'm savoring this game. Lifelong dream of beating Irish in a NATIONAL CHAMP. GAME? Fulfilled! Jan. 20th still permeates, but this is a soothing balm . What do I care about some unproven qb coming in? I have the REAL WORLD to contend with and advise yall to do the same. GO BUCKS! MISS YA TERRY BUT LOVE YOUR SUCCSOR TOO!❤

[@RonishaSparks-r7g]

Bro Julian sayin played in like three games last year. What do you mean he had no snaps

[@ucantdothatonyt]

I was wondering the same thing. No he didn't get as much press as Arch but he absolutely was ready to come in if Will got hurt.

[@armandopena2906]

He threw a 55 yard TD against Western Michigan.

[@paulr987]

The sample size that I've seen of Sayin is small, but it hasn't been too impressive. I believe the coaching staff knows what their doing, so the jury is still out on him. Lincoln K. will be a solid veteran back-up... I don't see him as a starter. Excited to see St. Clair. Redshirt might be an option for him (?).

[@Stardust713-y6e]

Im an atheist but Woody LOVED THIS GAME.❤❤❤❤

[@Stardust713-y6e]

Thanks WILLY HOWARD! ❤ MUCH LUV FOREVER!!!

[@stevevogel6762]

saying will be the starter. no doubt

[@Atomykpimp]

Buckeyes have had great QB’s since Krenzel back in 2002, then you got The Buckeye GOAT Troy Smith and not to mention you have a 3rd string QB who won The National Championship, as well as Fields, Stroud and of course WILL HOWARD!!!

[@southeastdaygo6193]

I would say Lincoln, but the way they are talking about Julian and how he was the best arm on the team I see Julian can win but I would like to see if Lincoln looks the part being in year 3 now!

[@jayingle2407]

Julian is the QB encyclopedia

[@Beaumo66]

I am pulling for Sayin and Jeremiah Smith 2025! The Room is high level and Athletic. Focus on the young guys we already have and let them lead the team

[@briananderson9650]

St Clair! Soon as 5 stars sit they transfer😮

[@MrBdogg317]

This upcoming season is sayins 2nd or 3rd season?

[@douglashall2141]

I'm afraid I have to agree with Coach day. It's all about who plays the best in practice and preseason but I honestly think that kleinholz has got a shot,, but Julian saying probably is the best quarterback right now. But when t a v i e n St Clair gets going he may be the one to beat.. people have to realize that these guys are very talented and any one of them could be playing someplace else yet they're here at OSU and great quarterbacks to boot. No need to go looking for another one when you have three of the best probably in the Big Ten. And I honestly believe that Julian saying will be the starter

[@MDB59]

Against inferior competition. Let's see how he fares against upper level competition.

[@artprince9163]

The best one would be my pick.

[@lurking0death]

No, not the best one, the one who says he loves Jesus every 6 seconds is the one.

[@JamesHammond-r5v]

Sayin will be a Superstar

[@AnthonyCartridge-s3g]

That's who would I like to see strat at ohio state

[@Fergs88]

@AnthonyCartridge-s3g Sorry about your dyslexia, bud!

[@clearlycaribbeanreb2895]

Jroc, “know what I’m sayin”

[@charlesstraight5499]

SAYIN.

[@blockthis08]

I think it’s stupid not to go to portal. It’s like his play calling for Michigan.

[@jaydoll487]

The coaches know if they have the qb needed or they would be in the portal since they aint then thats a great sign because if they did get a QB out the portal then sayin and lincoln k would more then likely transfer. But by them not going to the portal they know they see these qbs real talent in practice and they know if they have it or not so its definitely a real good sign. But i see sayin starting because hes got experience he even played actual playing time at bama so he will more then likely be the starter i don't see st clair starting next year unless sayin gets hurt and lincoln k transfers which i see happening if sayin gets the job over him will leave just sayin and st clair

[@Jeff-gd8ev]

I am pretty sure that Sayin never got playing time at Alabama. In fact, IIRC Sayin was a 2024 high school recruit for Alabama (i.e. November 2023 signee), then in January 2024 he transferred to Ohio State without ever actually setting foot on the Alabama campus. So while technically he was a transfer, in reality he was simply a high schooler coming to Ohio State.

[@jordianross]

Don’t sleep on Lincoln

[@CleverDowed]

We Got #92 for his Senior year! Caden "his nose is a 🏈" Curry

[@godzilla0974]

The day Julian figures it out he going to be Super 😅😅

[@myopicseer]

Sayin will be a superstar, and will be a starter in the NFL. Start him 2 yrs, than Tavien.

[@ArnoldBibbs]

Nick Saban, Bill O'Brien, Ryan Day AND Chip Kelly all stamped Sayin to be their guy. Quit playing. Tavien needs at least a year to get up to speed with the length, speed, and physicality of top-flight D1 defensive players. Much smaller and more rapidly closing windows given that he's coming from a lower level of Ohio H.S. competition. Lincoln will be more competitive with Julian at this point.

[@surgeneral108]

Yeah, it's about time Ryan Day develops a championship QB - instead of buying one from the portal.

[@noahshanafelt1494]

Just get the ball to Smith and we good

[@robertgates5164]

Appreciate the upload but this was not "MASSIVE News" as your title claims. Most people already knew Sayin was the current #1 post Howard. The OSU players knew it also as Air Noland (QB) transferred out knowing he wasn't next in line.

[@kevindondrea144]

I think Sayin should get it.

[@johntaylor996]

Ohio State should bring in a transfer quarterback after spring training! Saying did not look impressive,

[@johnshrader9174]

... whoever Ryan Day selects.

[@thingsarequestionable]

What happened to the great Air Noland?

[@cawj7896]

Transferred to South Carolina

[@Buckeyman55]

Noland just knew he never was going to be able to fit in here, and that's why he moved on. He had to face real competition, and couldn't get it done. I thought he would compete for the #1 job but he obviously couldn't compete, so c ya, glad ya showed your true color's on the practice field. Not when we needed a 3rd and 11 in the championship game. Because it takes someone special to make that throw. And we did with Howard.

[@TristenCoon-bw3sn]

​@@Buckeyman55 Lmao I'm an Ohio State fan but this isn't the first time Ryan has made a mistake at a position. I think Air Noland will be end up being better than Julian "tiny man" Sayin who has a weak ass arm and will be a bum this coming year and will cause us to lose multiple games and I will be calling for Day's job because let's be honest. In that spring game last year Air looked far better than Julian in the spring game.

[@RollTideRoll_GSP]

To be honest DeBoer/Bama didn’t even try to keep Sayin. DeBoer obviously didn’t like his size and believed more in Austin Mack who’s actually the same age as Sayin. Mack came to Bama with DeBoer from Washington but Mack went to Washington after his junior season of HS. We’ll see if that was the right decision going forward.

[@chrishance7604]

Sayin has stroud accuracy hes just kinda small for a qb

[@330wiz7]

I think everyone doesn’t understand how good Sayin is. They think he’s regular good but he’s not. He’s different. Tavein might be that dude too but we don’t know. He went to a small school and didn’t face much competition. Don’t get me wrong he looks great. But big time big 10 football is different than high school. Some kids can’t adjust and you don’t know till it happens. We’ll see. Same goes for Sayin as well.

[@TristenCoon-bw3sn]

Julian Sayin is indeed mid. Air Noland was better and Ryan Day fucked up and picked the worse quarterback out of the two. Julian has a weak arm I saw his Elite 11 highlights and I've seen him a couple times in garbage time this past season and he was by no means impressive and had a weaker arm than Will Howard did (not knocking Will because he was just the quarterback we needed but he really didn't have the strongest arm).

[@aclaw4u]

Who’s even available in the portal?

[@Buckeyman55]

Julian Sayin is going to be the starting QB day 1 he's been able to sit back and learn an entire year behind Howard, and that's the best thing he could have happened. Even Nick Saban said he was the best QB he's ever personally seen coming out of HS. He's ever requited. He even got to play for some for the Saban. Then the following year just as Sayin got to do, ST. Claire will be the starter because after winning the Heisman trophy he will declare for for the draft and move on to the NFL.

[@KristenBrett]

Go buks

[@AnthonyCartridge-s3g]

Tavien st clair

[@stixxinator]

Who? That's easy, whichever one is the best😂 Don't care which one it is. We have seen a little of Sayin and it seems people behind the scene think pretty highly of him. Saban obviously liked him when Bama recruited him and we also have not seen St. Clair yet in a college uni so who knows what he can do.

[@Blaxican1]

A freshman will never start at OSU. TSC should hv transferred schools to play D1 in HS nstead of that little school with no competition

[@tonydog4456]

Uh, art schleister? Braxton miller? I think sayin starts this year though. He is very polished, accurate, smart. Who knows after that. St clair has all the tools and when he learns the system I don’t think you can keep him off the field.
