Pac-12 reprimands Colorado's Tory Miller for biting Air Force player
The Pac-12 Conference has reprimanded Colorado sophomore forward Tory Miller, the university announced on Saturday afternoon.
On Wednesday, Miller was called for a Flagrant 2 (which results in an ejection) after officials determined he bit Air Force forward Hayden Graham. The incident occurred with 12:25 remaining in the second half when Miller and Graham got tangled up and wrestled over a loose ball.
Colorado won 81-70.
“I would like to apologize for my actions during the Air Force game. I would like to apologize to Hayden Graham, Air Force, my teammates and fans. It was a heat of the moment thing," Miller said in a statement released by the school. "I’m an emotional player, but I let my emotions get the best of me. I will use this as a learning experience and focus on helping my teammates and respecting my opponents for the rest of the season and beyond.”
Colorado returns to action on Sunday against Northern Colorado.
