Norwood returns for senior year

After declaring for the NFL Draft immediately after South Carolina's 31-10 bowl loss Jan. 1, junior linebacker Eric Norwood has decided to come back and finish his college career at USC.

Norwood, who the NFL's Early Draft Advisory Committee projected as a 4th-7th rounder, will return as the Gamecocks top defensive player. Norwood said his situation is similar to Wake Forest's Aaron Curry. Curry came back for his senior season and is now expected to be taken in the Top 5 in this year's draft after being named the nation's top linebacker.
