Locked In:”LaNorris Sellers signs $2.7Million, new NIL deal with South Carolina for 2025….

In order to guarantee his return to Columbia for the 2025 season, South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers has signed a new NIL contract with the Gamecocks’ NIL collective Garnet Trust. The seller has a $2.7 million On3 NIL valuation.

His 2025 comeback is now guaranteed by his new contract. After taking over as South Carolina’s starting quarterback, Sellers had a stellar 2024 campaign. In addition to 655 rushing yards and seven scores on the ground, he passed for 2,274 yards and 17 touchdowns in the air.

The Gamecocks ended the season with a six-game winning run and a 9-3 record, narrowly missing out on the College Football Playoffs because to those records.

Several schools attempted to join the transfer site in recent weeks, forcing South Carolina to ward off bidders for Sellers. Although Garnet Trust would not comment on the terms of the arrangement, insiders informed On3 that it is comparable to other high-profile quarterback deals in college football.

Regarding LaNorris Sellers’ predicament, a Power 4 personnel staffer recently told On3 that “he is been having programs reach out to his people ever after the LSU game.” Then, as he continued to ball out, an increasing number of programs reached out to him. Before the Clemson game, his phone was exploding with calls from playoff-caliber teams. After? That thing is still ringing.

In recent weeks, Dowell Loggains left South Carolina to take a position as head coach at Appalachian State, resulting in a shift in the offensive coordinator. After a year as an offensive analyst, the Gamecocks are reportedly getting ready to promote Mike Shula to the position while also keeping their quarterback on staff.
