Carson Beck - looked good, not hurt

I was a middle career gato sitting in a meeting when our Big Cat Commander looked at my brand new boss and welcomed him. He had just arrived and taken command from a highly regarded commander, who was a great guy.

"Hey, you have really big shoes to fill."

Without missing a beat, new guy said, "So and so was good, but I've got my own shoes...".

New guy ended as one of the best leaders I've ever seen on Planet Earth.

Cam was a fantastic QB1 for our Canes...maybe even the best to date.

Let's support Beck in his journey to be a different, but perhaps equally or even more fantastic, QB1 as well.

Go Canes.
Agree, 100%. Leadership is learned and earned. That’s the thread that runs thru them and binds us to them. They walk we run, they fight, we win. They win, it’s all about it, baby🙌🏽
 
If Beck somehow leads us to #6, I won’t go so far as to say people will forget Cam Ward real quick, but it would be quite a dynamic shifter in the dialogue.
There's no forgetting Cam. However, many people will be showing their asses and diminishing what he did.

Also, that ain't happening so it's a moot point.
 
Related note, because I’ve been watching a lot of previews this week. Love how the narrative went from “I’m not sold on Cam Ward” last offseason to “Miami is going to have a massive decline because Carson Beck is not Cam Ward” this offseason.

Beck isn’t as good as Ward but the same people are talking out both sides of their mouths.

I expect his game-management and deep ball to be better.

Can't read it what does it say?
"I'm told Carson Beck just looks phenomenal at Miami," said CBS Sports national college football reporter Brandon Marcello. "Big-time veteran presence.

"He was healing up from surgery throughout the offseason. He wasn't able to participate in practice. But he was in every meeting. He was meeting with the offensive line. It's starting to show here in their first week of full practices."
"I had one person down there tell me that that offensive line is 'elite,'" Marcello said. "We all know Mario Cristobal loves to build his team around the offensive and defensive lines. If he's got an elite offensive line, that could be big."
 
When he said that, that let me know I all I to about the “not a leader” narrative. Pure bs
They never said he wasn’t a leader and didn’t fit in culturally until he left. I’ve lived here in Georgia a long time (I watch pretty much every UGA game) and they LOVED him until he announced his transfer, and then immediately the narrative changed.

Another great example of him and his leadership was in the SEC championship last year. He actually went back in the game AFTER his injury (the one he had surgery for) to fight and get a touchdown for the team. Go watch the tape. The kid has a lot of heart.

He has the world’s best opportunity to shut everyone nationally the **** up with a big game against a top 5 team with a strong secondary. OL should be able to hold up against their DL but I’m still not convinced the WRs will get much separation. I’m predicting Lofton to have 80-100 yards game 1.
