This was easy to handle. The coach was more upset with Ted's partners. Ted just took care of business.

In regards to Knight incident, the Big Ten should have stood behind Valentine more in that situation. Plus, one of the other officials had a great opportunity to step in and help Valentine and passed on it, and thought that was not right either.[/B]
