An Illinois State University football coach, who served as the Redbirds’ offensive coordinator, departed from the football program last week, leaving a note on the door that said, “All Lives Matter to Our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ.”

Kurt Beathard told The Pantagraph he left the note before he parted ways with the team but declined to comment further about the circumstances surrounding his departure.
