During Alabama's 61-55 win over Florida on Saturday, junior Shannon Hale exchanged some words with the student section. 

This was the Rowdy Reptiles account of the back and forth inside the Stephen C. O'Connell Center.

While we don't know exactly what was said by both parties, we do know that Alabama head coach Avery Johnson used it as a teachable moment for his player.

Following the win, Johnson walked back across the court with Hale and apologized to the students.

Here's is a short video of the exchange. Listen all the way through as you'll hear the Florida students thank the head coach.

Hale finished the game with 10 points and two steals to help the Crimson Tide pull of its first victory in Gainesville in more than 20 years.
