Shut down for 2025 season Beebe (leg) is done for the 2025 campaign, per Zach Osterman of The Indianapolis Star

Impact Beebe injured his leg during Indiana's 73-0 romp over Indiana State on Friday night after tallying five carries for 46 yards and one catch for seven yards. The Hoosiers' backup tailback is now done for the year, meaning more onus will fall on starter Roman Hemby as well as fellow halfbacks Kaelon Black and Solomon Vanhorse to carry the load in the backfield in Bloomington.

Suffers leg injury Beebe suffered a leg injury during the Hoosiers' 73-0 win Friday against Indiana State, Michael Niziolek of The Herald-Times reports.

Impact During the Hoosiers' win, Beebe logged five carries for 46 yards. In the game's third quarter, Beebe's lone carry caused his non-contact injury. "We'll find out more Sunday or Monday," Indiana's head coach Curt Cignetti said. Until further notice, Beebe's injury status is questionable as the Hoosiers prepare for their next game, currently Sept. 20 against Illinois.

Productive in blowout win Beebe totaled 11 rushes for 90 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 56-9 victory over Kennesaw State.

Impact Beebe found the end zone on an 11-yard scamper in the second quarter, giving the Hoosiers a 21-3 lead at the time. The 5-foot-10 running back put together an efficient outing against the Owls, totaling 90 yards on 8.2 yards per attempt. Though he led the team in attempts on the ground, the blowout nature of the team's first two games suggests that the true pecking order of the Indiana backfield has not yet been defined. A matchup against Indiana State awaits on Saturday.

Lands with Indiana Beebe will transfer to Indiana, On3.com reports.

Impact Beebe had a highly productive year for UAB in his junior season, rushing for 885 yards and seven touchdowns on 5.3 yards-per-carry. He also caught 30 passes for 219 yards and one touchdown. He figures to play a big role in the Hoosiers backfield next fall.

Will enter portal Beebe will enter the transfer portal, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact UAB's 2024 season came to a close Saturday, when Beebe capped off his breakout year. For the first time in his collegiate career, he surpassed 1,000 all-purpose yards. Especially with not many players in the portal just yet, Beebe is expected to attract early interest from at least some top suitors.

DECEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice in season finale Beebe posted 19 carries for 82 yards and one touchdown and reeled in 4 of 5 targets for 20 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 29-27 loss versus Charlotte.

Impact Beebe had another strong performance Saturday as he scored two touchdowns for the third time this season. He caught an 11-yard touchdown and scored a one-yard rushing touchdown, both in the fourth quarter. He also gained over 100 yards from scrimmage for the third time this season, all of which came in his last four games. He finished the season with 166 carries for 885 yards and seven touchdowns, adding 30 catches for 219 yards and a touchdown through the air.

DECEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dominant in Saturday's win Beebe logged 16 rushes for 161 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 40-14 win over Rice.

Impact Beebe had by far his best outing of the season Saturday as he gained a season-high 161 yards on the ground and scored two touchdowns for the second time this season. He averaged over 10 yards per carry on his 16 carries, his most efficient day of the season. He faces a favorable matchup Saturday at Charlotte in the season finale.

NOVEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in blowout loss Beebe posted 12 carries for 42 yards and reeled in 2 of 4 targets for 16 yards during Saturday's 53-18 loss versus Memphis.

Impact Beebe once again led the Blazers' backfield Saturday, however he was not able to get much going as his team was completely outmatched. He still gained a solid 58 yards, but his inability to find the end zone hurt his performance significantly. He faces two somewhat favorable matchups to end the season, starting Saturday versus Rice.

NOVEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Productive in Saturday's loss Beebe tallied 17 carries for 115 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 6 of 7 targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 31-23 loss to Connecticut.

Impact Beebe had arguably his best game of the season Saturday as he ran for over 100 yards for the first time this season, totaling 136 yards from scrimmage on 23 touches. He also scored a 25-yard touchdown at the end of the second quarter. His game was by no means perfect though as he lost a fumble with less than five minutes left in the fourth quarter and his team down just one point. He faces a more difficult matchup Saturday at Memphis.

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in blowout win Beebe posted 10 carries for 34 yards and gathered in 2 of 3 targets for 22 yards during Saturday's 59-21 victory versus Tulsa.

Impact Despite the Blazers' jumping out to a massive early lead on Saturday, Beebe was still unable to have a productive performance. He led the backfield in touches by a significant margin, but he managed a fairly disappointing 56 yards from scrimmage. The fact that he did not receive lots of carries in a blowout win is a bit of a concern moving into the final stretch of the season.

NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

High volume in loss Beebe had 18 rushes for 68 yards and reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 35-25 loss against South Florida.

Impact Beebe saw a season-high 21 touches in Saturday's loss, accumulating a solid 85 yards from scrimmage. He has recorded at least 80 yards in six of seven games this season, but his one touchdown in his last six games has hurt his upside significantly. He has a high floor every week but his ceiling, especially with the Blazers' poor record, leaves something to be desired.

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet as lead back Beebe had nine rushes for 36 yards and hauled in their only target for six yards during Saturday's 44-10 loss versus Army.

Impact Beebe ran for a season-low 36 yards Saturday, which is not that surprising considering his team fell into a deficit early. He still dominated the rushing attempts among running backs which is a good sign heading into the back half of the season. He should be able to produce more Saturday at South Florida.

OCTOBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Decent in loss Beebe accrued nine carries for 78 yards and hauled in 2 of 3 targets for 20 yards during Saturday's 71-20 defeat to Tulane.

Impact Beebe logged 98 yards from scrimmage Saturday, his second most this season. He did it on just 11 touches too, so it was a fairly efficient day despite his team losing by 51 points. Beebe has found a way to stay relevant despite the Blazers poor performances as he has gained at least 82 yards in every game this season.
