Georgia quarterback Carson Beck’s time in the transfer portal was short-lived, as he announced his commitment to the University of Miami just a week after entering the portal. Beck, who injured his elbow in the SEC title game, had originally declared for the NFL Draft before changing his mind and entering the transfer portal.
Despite stepping up for the Bulldogs with backup Gunner Stockton, Georgia fell to Notre Dame in the quarterfinals. Beck’s girlfriend, Hanna Cavinder, and her twin sister, Haley, are both members of Miami’s women’s basketball team, and Hanna’s boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson, is also a Hurricane.
Beck, who spent five seasons at Georgia, has completed 68% of his passes for 7,912 yards, 58 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions in his college career. He appeared in 39 games for the Bulldogs, including 27 in the last two seasons. Beck’s new team, Miami, is losing FBS touchdown leader Cam Ward to the NFL Draft, but Beck could follow a similar path as Ward, who considered entering the 2024 NFL Draft before deciding to join the Hurricanes.
