University of North Carolina guard Joel Berry II said that official Ted Valentine apologized to him today before the Tar Heels' 80-66 win over Georgia Tech.
The apology comes from an incident in early January, when Valentine turned his back on Berry while Berry attempted to discuss a no call with the official during a loss to Florida State on January 3.
Valentine was removed from two Big Ten games he'd been scheduled to work as a result, and even briefly mulled retirement, before returning to work.
