COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State five-star quarterback Tavien St. Clair has agreed to a multi-year partnership with Panini America, per a press release sent out on Tuesday. Panini America, in the officially licensed collectibles business, is a national publisher of trading cards, stickers, comics and children’s magazines.

After a deflating weekend, the Ohio State football team got a bit of good news on the recruiting front. The No. 2 rated quarterback in the class of 2027 has given his verbal pledge to be a Buckeye.

Ohio State football got some good news during a tough time for the program. Head coach Ryan Days is facing many questions about his future in Columbus after the Buckeyes crushing home loss to the Michigan Wolverines.

Ohio State also does not have a 2026 quarterback committed at the moment. With five-star Tavien St. Clair in the 2025 class, and five-star Julian Sayin from the 2024 class, that would make three out of four years for the Buckeyes that they’ve brought in a five-star quarterback commit.
