Gamecocks QB Room: A Clear Picture for Depth Chart Thursday
With LaNorris Sellers firmly entrenched as the starter, South Carolina's quarterback depth chart offers stability heading into the summer months.
As the calendar flips to mid-June, the intense on-field battles of spring have given way to the summer grind of recruiting and conditioning. For South Carolina and Head Coach Shane Beamer, the conclusion of spring practices on April 11th brought clarity to the most important position on the field. On this Depth Chart Thursday, the picture for the Gamecocks under center is crystal clear.
Leading the charge is quarterback LaNorris Sellers, who has solidified his role as QB1. Under the guidance of Offensive Coordinator Kendal Briles, Sellers enters the summer as the undisputed leader of the offense. His position atop the depth chart provides a crucial foundation as the team prepares for the upcoming 2026 season.
Behind Sellers, the depth chart is also taking shape. The primary backups are Cutter Woods and Lucian Anderson III, who round out the quarterback room. While Sellers is the clear starter, the development of Woods and Anderson provides the necessary support and competition within the group.
With the quarterback hierarchy established, Coach Beamer, along with coordinators Kendal Briles and Clayton White, can focus on fine-tuning the roster and game plans. This stability at quarterback is a valuable asset, allowing the coaching staff to build the rest of the offensive scheme around a known quantity as they head toward fall camp.
