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.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in blowout loss Beebe logged 15 carries for 82 yards and one touchdown and hauled in 1 of 3 targets for 12 yards during Saturday's 41-18 defeat to Navy.
Impact Beebe had another productive outing Saturday as he scored his third rushing touchdown of the season, a two-yard rush in the fourth quarter. He also tied a season high with 82 yards on the ground and gained over 80 yards from scrimmage in his fourth straight outing. His consistent workload -- even when the Blazers are losing -- gives him a high floor even in difficult matchups, which he is set to face in each of the next two weeks.

Decent in blowout loss Beebe Jr. posted 14 rushes for 62 yards and hauled in all five targets for 36 yards during Saturday's 32-6 loss versus Louisiana-Monroe.
Impact Beebe was the lone bright spot in UAB's rough outing Saturday as he gained nearly 100 yards on 19 touches. He proved to be reliable in the passing game, racking up a career-high five receptions, which is something that could continue moving forward seeing that he's been the Blazers' best offensive player through two games.

2 TDs and 2 fumbles Thursday Beebe Jr. compiled 15 rushes for 82 yards, two touchdowns and two lost fumbles during Thursday's 41-3 victory against Alcorn State.
Impact Beebe lost two fumbles in the first quarter Thursday, a rough way to start his 2024 campaign. However, he scored a pair of rushing touchdowns in the first half and led the Blazers in rushing attempts and yards, so he still ended up with a productive performance overall. He appears to be locked in as the starting running back, but if he continues to have issues with ball security that could change.

Electric in season finale Beebe compiled seven carries for 101 yards and two touchdowns and caught all two targets for 39 yards during Saturday's 45-42 defeat to North Texas.
Impact Beebe had just nine touches in Saturday's season finale but went for 140 total yards and scored two touchdowns versus the nation's worst run defense. A lot of that production came on a 66-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter, but he still played well throughout the game complimenting Jermaine Brown Jr. He finished the season with 52 rushing attempts for 360 yards (6.9 yards per carry) and four touchdowns and added 14 catches for 98 yards through the air. With a potential for more playing time next season, he could be a very productive back in 2024.
NOVEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Breaks out in win Beebe posted 10 rushes for 70 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-24 win against Temple.
Impact Beebe recorded a career-high 70 yards Saturday in his second game this season receiving at least 10 touches. He complimented Jermaine Brown Jr. (20 carries for 153 yards and a touchdown) quite well and scored his second touchdown of the season on a seven-yard run in the second quarter. He should have plenty of chance to produce again Saturday at North Texas, a defense which allows nearly 260 rushing yards per game, the most in the country.
