Overview

• Beck, a Georgia transfer, is the Hurricanes’ named starter as No. 10 Miami hosts No. 6 Notre Dame in Week 1.
• After offseason UCL surgery from an SEC title game injury, Beck is fully cleared and reported to be in command of Shannon Dawson’s offense.
• Camp reviews are upbeat — including a CBS Sports report that he “looks phenomenal” — even as an Athletic columnist predicts he could be replaced by late October.
• Miami’s attack returns with a highly regarded offensive line and a young receiving group, following a record-setting year that preceded Cam Ward becoming the NFL Draft’s No. 1 pick.
• Depth behind Beck includes Emory Williams, freshman Luke Nickel and redshirt Judd Anderson, with a schedule quirk featuring byes before Florida State on Oct. 4 and Louisville on Oct. 17 and no road game outside Florida until Nov. 1.
