Tuberville claimed that he too was bothered by the way the situation ended, but pointed out that he apologized to Oliver. While the veteran coach continues to draw criticism for the way he handled himself in a frantic moment, Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby is actively “engaged” in discussions about how to best handle Tuberville’s incident.
Bowlsby is expected to review the coach’s Monday press conference before going forward with any type of disciplinary action.
