Heard on Pate's podcast today that Hoover is the heavy favorite for Indiana.

This dude is basically Bo Nix 2.0 with a bad foot.
I like other qbs better, but he’d do well here.

When Beck landed at Miami, Mario said the biggest factor in pursuing him was his experience playing on large stages/in big games.
Leavitt is the only QB currently in the portal that has played in the CFP.

Makes sense. I wouldn’t be mad at him being our pick. He’s a good qb and can flourish in our system. It’s not like he's DJU.

Hard Pass, the injury should disqualify him.

Did Beck’s injury disqualify him?

Yes Mark had the same injury and he was not available to practice until fall. Sam is a QB who will need time to not only learn the system but build chemistry with the receivers.
The time missed with the team will prevent chemistry building and him becoming comfortable in the system. We saw a the direct impact of a QB not having enough time in the system. According to Beck it wasn’t until the SMU game that he was comfortable in the system, Miami can not afford to take that risk again next season.
Now look at the difference with a healthy Cam. He was able to build chemistry with the guys and that was evident from the first game at Florida.

Beck was the clear best QB in the portal and to be honest if you do it all over again I would have picked Mendoza over him because of the injury.
Beck not having that practice time was the direct result of his game against Louisville. You can see him pressing because he wasn’t comfortable in the system. Again he said himself he wasn’t comfortable in the system until the SMU game. This is a QB who had 26 starts on a high level football team before coming to Miami and it took him until the 8th game of the season to be comfortable in the system due to missing the spring and summer.
Why would Miami put themselves in that position again when there are just as good and better options available?
