Beaver had a solid showing in spring practice and was sitting No. 2 on the depth chart this summer. He was scheduled to sit out the upcoming season at Tulsa as an academic red-shirt, according to the University release.
"We wish Shavodrick the very best in his future endeavors," said Blankenship. "He is a fine young man, and we hope that he has a good career at Midwestern State while pursuing his degree."
Beaver came to Tulsa from Wichita Falls Rider High School where he was a 4-star recruit and one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the nation as a prep senior in 2008.
