Sellers’ impressive stats propelled the Gamecocks to a 9-3 record, highlighted by a six-game winning streak to close the season, narrowly missing a spot in the College Football Playoff.

South Carolina had to hold off suitors for Sellers, as multiple schools made efforts in recent weeks for the quarterback to jump in the transfer portal. Garnet Trust declined to give specifics on the agreement but sources told On3 it’s on pace with other top quarterback deals in college football.

“Ever since the LSU game, he’s been having programs reach out to his people,” a Power 4 personnel staffer recently told On3 about the LaNorris Sellers situation. “Then as he kept balling out he’s only had more and more programs reach out. I mean he had playoff-caliber teams blowing up his phone like crazy before the Clemson game. After? That shit hasn’t stopped ringing.”

South Carolina recently experienced an offensive coordinator change, with Dowell Loggains departing to take the head coaching job at Appalachian State. The Gamecocks are set to promote Mike Shula, who spent the past year as an offensive analyst, to the role. Meanwhile, they have ensured their quarterback, LaNorris Sellers, remains part of the team moving forward.

Retaining Sellers is a significant win for South Carolina, both in terms of roster stability and portal success. With four days left in the December transfer portal window, the Gamecocks have solidified their status as an appealing destination for top transfer talent.
