Beckman dealing with stress of Illini struggles

By: Aaron Bennett

Updated: October 11, 2012

Beckman said Saturday the stress might be contributing to his tobacco use, which the cameras caught at Wisconsin. It isn't at all the way Beckman had hoped to start his Illini career, and from here on out the pressure is on.
