Tim Beckman will no longer serve as a volunteer assistant for the North Carolina football team, he said in a statement Thursday.
Beckman was fired from Illinois in August 2015 when an internal investigation claimed he mistreated some of his players, pressuring them to play through injury and postpone treatment.
Beckman coached at Oklahoma State in 2007 alongside UNC Coach Larry Fedora, who hired Beckman at the beginning of training camp.
“I appreciate the opportunity Coach Fedora gave me to stay connected to the sport and be around one of the best staffs in the country," Beckman said in a statement.
