UF's Urban Meyer privately apologizes to Reporter for Wednesday's Outburst

Keith Niebuhr of GatorBait.net reports that Urban Meyer privately apologized to a reporter from the ORLANDO SENTINEL today after verbally confronting the writer following a Florida football practice last Wednesday.
Meyer met with Sentinel reporter Jeremy Fowler for 22 minutes on Saturday after a Gators practice. Fowler said, “I won’t go into the details of the conversation, but I would say that Urban did apologize. And I feel like as a work-related conversation it was constructive.”
Fowler added that he “absolutely” accepted Meyer’s apology. Meyer declined media requests to discuss the private conversation.
On Wednesday, Meyer confronted Fowler in front of the gathered media, and a video camera, to question a quote the reporter had recently attributed to Gators wide receiver Deonte Thompson.
In reference to the transition from Tim Tebow to new Florida starting quarterback John Brantley, Fowler reported Thompson said, “With new QB John Brantley, everything’s with rhythm, time. You know what I mean, a real quarterback.”
During his outburst at Fowler on Wednesday, Meyer said, “I told you five years ago: Don’t mess with our players. Don’t do it. You did it. You do it one more time and the Orlando Sentinel’s not welcome here ever again. Is that clear? It’s yes or no.”
