Syndication: Florida Times-Union - Source: Imagn

The Miami Hurricanes made a huge addition in the winter transfer window when they added QB Carson Beck. With QB Cam Ward set to enter the 2025 NFL draft, the team needed a new QB if it was going to have a chance to repeat its 2024 success in 2025. With the addition of Carson Beck, they have a chance of being a dominant team in the ACC again.

The Carson Beck-led Miami Hurricanes received more good news on Thursday, this time in the spring transfer portal. 2024 recruit wide receiver NY Carr was a top 100-ranked player in his class.

However, he had entered the transfer portal at the start of the spring window. Fortunately for the Hurricanes, they got good news on Thursday as Carr withdrew from the transfer portal and will return to Miami.

"Miami is getting WR Ny Carr back. The former top 100 prospect is withdrawing from the transfer portal."

NY Carr only appeared in three games last season and was only targeted twice in those three games. Of those three targets, he made one reception for 8 yards on Sept. 7 against Florida A&M. It will be interesting to see if he plays a bigger role next season with Carson Beck as the team's QB.

Miami Hurricanes have lost several players in the spring transfer window

With NY Carr returning to the Miami Hurricanes, the team's portal bleeding stops for a little bit. The Hurricanes have been significantly impacted by the spring transfer window. Not counting Carr, the team has five players who have entered the spring transfer window: Elias Rudolph, Joshua Horton, Zaquan Patterson, Emmanuel Karnley, and Abram Murray.

Of those five players, two have committed to other teams. Isaiah Thomas committed to Kennesaw State, and Joshua Horton committed to Georgia. The other three players have not committed to a team in the portal. As a result, there is a chance that they could return to the Hurricanes.

The transfer portal window remains open until Friday. Any player who has not committed to a new school at that point will return to their old team.

For the Hurricanes, it will be interesting to see how the transfer portal impacts their 2025 season. The spring transfer window did not result in any star players entering the portal. However, the team is losing a lot of depth, which could cause issues the longer the season goes.
