During tonight’s 30 For 30 documentary I Hate Christian Laettner, the film went to commercial while discussing Laettner’s stomp of Aminu Timberlake in 1992. Immediately on Twitter, Christian Laettner shared a message he now has for Aminu.

Given how the documentary showed Laettner unapologetic nature for most of his transgressions while playing for Duke, this apology was a show of class long overdue. The 45-year-old Laettner has softened a bit on The Stomp, letting UK fans play-stomp him in pictures.
Time heals all wounds, but we’ll all still be mad that Laettner wasn’t tossed from the game for stomping.
