'Dysfunctional' Illini need a plan

According to sources close to the program, the Illini headed out of [the bye week] with a dysfunctional coaching staff bickering over their roles and direction of the offense.

A former defensive coordinator, Beckman became more involved with the offense during the season, the sources said, and limited the decision-making of co-offensive coordinator Chris Beatty. Beckman's plan with the offense changed week to week, thus forcing the Illini offense to change with it rather than developing an identity.
