Active to open fall camp Beebe (leg) is active as the Hoosiers open fall camp, Alec Lasley of On3.com reports.

Impact Beebe, who missed most of the 2025 season with a leg injury, is back in action for IU as they prepare to open the 2026 season. The 5-foot-10 redshirt senior is expected to be part of a three-headed running back room including Turbo Richard and Khobie Martin. Beebe, who started his career at UAB, logged his most productive season with the Blazers in 2024, tallying 196 total touches for 1,103 yards and eight touchdowns.

Could be in rushing mix Beebe (knee) could be involved in Indiana's three-headed rushing attack to open the 2026 season, according to Michael Niziolek of The Indianapolis Star.

Impact The Hoosiers are expected to rely on a three-player committee to lead their rushing offense, with Turbo Richard and Khobie Martin leading the way, though Beebe could be in the mix as well. Beebe is coming back from an ACL injury, however, so it remains to be seen just how involved he'll get. But even if healthy, his fantasy appeal is likely to be a bit lower compared to Richard's and Martin's.

Remains limited in practice Beebe (leg) isn't a full participant in Indiana's spring practice, per The Daily Hoosier.

Impact Beebe ran for 209 yards and one touchdown last season at Indiana, missing all but the first three games of the season. The tailback is expected to be a full participant in fall practice, but that's not the case in spring ball quite yet. Beebe should be a rotational back for the Hoosiers in 2026.

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.
