 South Carolina’s Great Head Coach Shane Beamer Has Named His Starting Quarterback Coming Out Of Spring Practices, And He Was The 8th Ranked Quarterback In 2023

South Carolina doesn’t open their 2024 season until August 31st against Old Dominion. Still, we already know who will be the starting quarterback when the Gamecocks take the field to open their new season.

South Carolina Has To Replace Spencer Rattler

The Gamecocks had one of the best quarterbacks in college football the previous two seasons in Spencer Rattler, who once was the number one quarterback coming out of high school. Still, after three seasons in Oklahoma, he decided that a change of scenery was necessary and headed to Columbia.

Rattler appeared in 25 games for South Carolina, throwing for 6,212 yards and 37 touchdowns while picking up 150 rushing yards and seven scores on the ground.

The Gamecocks are losing a ton of production at the most critical position in the sport, and on Monday, we might’ve just found out who will be the guy filling the big shoes Rattler left.

Beamer Named Class Of 2023 Quarterback His Starter

According to Gamecock Central, Shane Beamer has named LaNorris Sellers the starting quarterback coming out of spring practice. Sellers and Aubrun transfer Robby Ashford were competing for the job, but at the end of the day, Sellers walked away with it, heading into fall camp.

Sellers Was A Highly-Rated Player Coming Out Of High School

According to On3.com, the 6-foot-3 South Florence, South Carolina quarterback was the eighth-ranked quarterback and 95th overall player in the 2023 class.

The Carolina native appeared in three games last season, picking up 51 rushing yards and a score with his legs and throwing for 86 passing yards and two touchdowns.
