BREAKING NEWS: LaNorris Sellers Chooses to Stay at South Carolina, Declines 2025 NFL Draft Entry
In a shocking and exciting development for South Carolina football, star quarterback LaNorris Sellers has announced that he will remain with the Gamecocks for the 2024 season, opting out of entering the 2025 NFL Draft. The decision comes as a surprise to many, as Sellers has been widely regarded as one of the top quarterback prospects in college football, with scouts and analysts already projecting him as a first-round pick.
Sellers, a dynamic dual-threat quarterback, has had an impressive career at South Carolina, showing off his arm strength, football IQ, and playmaking ability. His rise to prominence this season, alongside his leadership and growth on the field, led many to believe he would declare for the draft and turn pro after the 2024 season. However, in a statement released earlier today, Sellers expressed his desire to complete his college career and further develop his game under Gamecocks head coach Shane Beamer.
“I’m not ready to leave this program,” Sellers said. “There’s more to accomplish here, and I want to give it everything I’ve got for my teammates, my coaches, and the fans who have supported me. We’re building something special, and I’m excited to be a part of it for one more year.”
The decision is a huge boost for South Carolina football, as Sellers is widely seen as the centerpiece for the team’s future success. His return ensures that the Gamecocks will have one of the top quarterbacks in the SEC leading them into the 2024 season.
