Expert Analysis
Tyler Graham | Prep Redzone Scout
Ben is a really underrated talent with a ton of upside. Great footwork, mechanics and decision making. He has done a really nice job leading St. Clair over the last few years and has consistently performed well. Through injury, team changes and all, Ben has been a solid as a rock leader for his squad. His tape from this year shows tremendous growth once again, with a ton of consistency in his mechanics and throwing motion. Whether it’s under pressure or not, he delivers nice and accurate balls all over the field. Ben is a talented QB that can be a difference maker at the next level!

The Senior QB for St. Clair has been making plays for a while now. It seems like every month for the past two years, Ben is putting out new tape.
Ben’s 3-week tape is exactly what I expected. Showing off that big arm with some shots downfield, and some quick game. I like 0:09- Ben does a great job getting the ball out on time, hitting his receiver right out of his break. Same thing at 0:22, just different coverage. Finally, 0:44 showcases Ben’s wheels. Great job keeping it on the option, then navigating the defense, and exploiting the inferior athletes. I’m excited to see what this big-armed QB is able to do for the rest of his senior season.

Ben has shown some improvement since last season. For one, he had a great week on the ground. His first highlight shows an excellent pull on the option, and he shows some speed, taking it to the house. I don’t think Ben is an elite athlete, but you can 100% trust him to run the ball on some designed carries. As for passing, Ben showed off his arm on a deep ball and a few throws to the intermediate part of the field. I’m optimistic for Ben, and I think he’ll be a very good NAIA prospect this Spring.

I’ve been able to watch Ben a few times now, and I always come away feeling even better about him than the last time. He’s a smart and athletic QB who can make good reads and deliver consistent balls, and he can improvise when things get messy. His throwing motion is nice, he has clear poise in the pocket and doesn’t bail too early, always keeping his eyes downfield. Ben has continued to impress me time after time, and he’s on a fantastic trajectory to start raking in some D2 and D3 very soon.

Ben had great stats last season. He thrives at making plays outside of the pocket and offensive structure. He has a few great deep ball highlights, and flashes good accuracy. Very intrigued to see how Ben tests and throws at the showcase.

I had liked Ben and his game before, but seeing him at the Stock Up Showcase really solidified his case as one of the best 2026 QBs out there. He tested extremely well in pretty much every drill, and when it came to 1 on 1 time, he was hitting guys in stride at many different spots on the field. His back shoulder throws, his over the shoulder throws and his bullet passes all looked crisp. On timing routes he seemed to adjust well to any receiver and hit them perfectly. Keep this dude in mind in the fall because he could really emerge as a prospect worth offering!

Farkas posted some of the top testing numbers from the quarterback group at the PRZ MI Stock Up Showcase. He also has the size and athleticism to be an elite quarterback as he develops. Farkas measured in at 6’1, 194 lbs and ran a 4.71 40 yard dash, 4.68 short shuttle, and 7.44 L-Drill. He also exploded for 9’2 broad jump. These numbers translated to individual drills, as Farkas impressed when throwing on the run and working footwork drills. He also displayed solid accuracy and plus arm strength throughout 1-on-1’s. The sophomore quarterback out of St. Clair is sure to turn heads over the next two seasons of his high school career.
