Tom Crean has postgame altercation with Michigan assistant

Indiana head coach Tom Crean called a postgame altercation with Michigan assistant Jeff Meyer a “professional misunderstanding,” and told reporters that he apologized to Meyer shortly after the incident took place.

“The one thing I want to get out of the way, because I don’t want it to take away from the game at all is a professional misunderstanding I had with coach Jeff Meyer after the game,” Crean said during Monday’s Big Ten coaches teleconference. “Later that night, on the way to the plane actually, I talked to him on the telephone. We discussed a couple things, I apologized for that.
