LaNorris Sellers and South Carolina are in the final stages of negotiations for the quarterback to return to the school in 2026, ESPN reported Saturday.

The deal should be finalized soon, per the report.

Sellers, 20, will be a redshirt junior with two seasons of eligibility remaining.

The 247Sports composite listed him as a four-star recruit and the No. 18 QB prospect in the nation in the Class of 2023.

The South Carolina native had been considered a first-round NFL draft prospect for 2026 but apparently has decided to put that move off at least one year following a disappointing season.

Sellers finished well behind other quarterbacks in key statistical categories in 2025. His 2,437 passing yards ranked No. 61, and he threw just 13 touchdown passes, tied for 75th among FBS quarterbacks. He was intercepted eight times and sacked 42 times as South Carolina finished 4-8 (1-7 Southeastern Conference).

Offensive coordinator Mike Shula was fired and replaced by Kendal Briles, who spent the past three seasons as the associate head coach, offensive coordinator and quarterback coach at TCU, where the Horned Frogs were among the leaders in many offensive categories.
