CFB Analyst Breaks Down Why Carson Beck Might Be Better Than Cam Ward for Miami Hurricanes in 2025
College football analyst Greg McElroy believes Miami Hurricanes QB Carson Beck could have a similar impact in 2025 as Cam Ward did last season.
The Miami Hurricanes took a big step forward this past season. They had 10 wins, reaching double-digit wins for the first time since 2017. A major reason for their success was the addition of quarterback Cam Ward through the transfer portal.
Ward had an immediate impact and finished the season as a Heisman Trophy finalist. Now, many fans are concerned that transfer Carson Beck will not have the same success.
Greg McElroy hosted “Always Football with Greg McElroy” on Wednesday, Feb 12. On the episode, he discussed Beck’s addition to Miami via the transfer portal. He pointed out that Beck could have a similar impact to Ward because he came from a similar situation in Georgia to Cam Ward, who came from Washington State before joining Miami.
“You look at Carson Beck, we’ll start there. A lot of excitement surrounding Miami is probably hedged because of Cam Ward’s departure and how good Cam Ward was. And the perception that Carson Beck is maybe a little up and down.”
