Spencer Rattler on LaNorris Sellers: 'He's gonna be a dog'
With the Spencer Rattler era at South Carolina officially over, the LaNorris Sellers era is just beginning.
Following participating at Gamecocks Pro Day on Tuesday, Rattler shared his thoughts on what he expects from the redshirted freshman QB.
“He’s gonna be a dog. He’s gonna be the guy,” said Rattler. “Just physical, smart, super talented. He’s gonna do some big things here.”

Sellers appeared in three games this past season as a true freshman, which allowed him to preserve his redshirt. He completed all four of his pass attempts for 86 yards and two touchdowns while also rushing for 51 yards on five carries, including a 36-yard touchdown.
In a recent interview with On3’s J.D. PicKell, Shane Beamer shared what stands out to him about Sellers.

“He’s a great young man, first and foremost; really used that year last year to get better,” said Beamer. “When we put him in games last season, he performed well. Whether it was at the end of the game in wins over Vanderbilt and Furman; we used him in a package against Kentucky as well. And he was always productive in those moments; moments not too big for him. So, I think he’s got a great way about himself.”

Standing at 6-foot-3, 240 pounds, Sellers will be competing for QB1 in a room that will feature many new faces.
“We got a competition in that room along with Robby Ashford, who we brought in from Auburn; Davis Beville, who transferred in from Oklahoma; Dante Reno, a freshman that just got here, and Luke Doty, who’s been in our program now since before I became the head coach,” added Beamer. “So I like that room. They’re doing a good job of supporting one another, and I’m excited to watch that quarterback position compete with one another when we start spring practice.”
