Carson Beck's potential transfer from Georgia to Miami has ignited a social media frenzy. The star quarterback entered the NCAA transfer portal Thursday, with Miami emerging as his likely destination, sources told ESPN. The deal could be completed within a week.
The move would fill a crucial gap for the Hurricanes, who are set to lose quarterback Cam Ward. Beck's connection to Miami runs deeper than football – his girlfriend, Hanna Cavinder, plays basketball for the university.
Social media erupted with reactions, one fan wrote:
"Wow... Hanna Cavinder tampering."
The romantic angle adds an intriguing layer to what could be a game-changing acquisition for Miami's 2025 season.
“Leaving a national champion favorite and moving across country for a girl is insane ngl,” another wrote.
“Closer to the Cavinder's? Yea, Miami UNDER next year,” one wrote.
One fan listed down their feelings on the news of Beck possibly going to Miami.
“Shocked. Stunned. Blown away,” one wrote.
Another wanted the Canes punished heavily for their supposed 'tampering.'
“Miami should get the death penalty for all the tampering they’ve done this year out,” another wrote, referring to the NCAA banning a school from competing in a sport.
Meanwhile, one Georgia fan does not seem too broken up about losing Carson Beck.
“They are more than welcome to have him,” one wrote.
Head coach Mario Cristobal and offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson transformed Ward during his tenure. If they can replicate that success with Beck, Miami could emerge as an ACC powerhouse.
