CHAMPAIGN -- The father of an Illini football player is in legal trouble. Nate Creer is the father of quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase. Creer was arrested for criminal trespass this morning.

The Champaign County State's Attorney says he showed up to an ex-girlfriend's home uninvited. Jan Johnson woke up to the sound of him in her home, so she called police.

Johnson told us the two had been dating on and off for about two years.  She says Creer kept calling her and asking to come over.  She said no but all of a sudden he was in her house.  

It happened around 2:30 in the morning.  Johnson says her animals warned her something wasn't right.  Creer was in her house and she says he was drunk.  So she called 911.  Deputies showed up and arrested him. 

Johnson says she's going to file for an order of protection tomorrow.  We have been in contact with Nathan Scheelhaase and his family throughout the night.  They chose not to respond to the accusations.
