It’s only been a few weeks since Georgia Bulldogs starting quarterback Carson Beck declared for the 2025 NFL draft.
Now, it appears he’s changed his mind. On Thursday, On3’s Pete Nakos reported, “BREAKING: Georgia QB Carson Beck plans to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal.”
CBS Sports ranked Beck as the fifth-best quarterback in this year’s draft class. By returning to college, the former Bulldog has a chance to boost his draft stock while also allowing himself ample time to recover from season-ending surgery on his throwing arm without the pressure of rushing back.
Following the news on Thursday, fans immediately pointed to the Miami Hurricanes as the program they think Beck will transfer to. But not just for the obvious reason of Miami needing a quarterback with star Cam Ward leaving.

Fans think it’s also due to his girlfriend, Hanna Cavinder, who plays basketball for the Hurricanes.
“Carson Beck is going to Miami to follow that Cavinder twin he’s dating,” one fan said.
“Carson Beck to Miami to be with cavinder,” another wrote.
“Carson Beck going to transfer to Miami and replace Cam Ward so he can be with Cavinder. Insanity,” added another.
“As long as Beck is dating a Cavinder and John Ruiz is funding Miami’s NIL, I’ll be stunned if he doesn’t go to Miami,” one said.
“First class ticket to Miami for the Cavinder twin WOW,” wrote a fan.
“He’s dating Miami guard Hanna Cavinder,” said a fan. “Guessing he’ll be a Hurricane.”

ESPN’s Pete Thamel even reported, “Miami would loom as the favorite right now for Carson Beck.”
It’s unclear if Beck’s relationship has anything to do with why Thamel said that, but it’s definitely worth noting.
