Referee Ted Valentine buries the hatchet with UNC's Joel Berry after ugly incident

Posted Jan 20, 2018
Referee Ted Valentine made headlines this month when, during UNC's game against Florida State, TV Teddy turned his back on Tar Heels guard Joel Berry instead of listening to him about a no-call he wanted to discuss. The fallout led to him being removed from two Big Ten games and he even considered retirement. But on Saturday, Valentine appeared to make good with Berry. (CBS Sports)
