"Every time I see Jerry Jones, it's not only a warm handshake, but a deep hug and respect and always an invitation to do more."
The "Hot Mic" guys asked Wiley about Colorado Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders, whose second year as the skip in Boulder got off to a rocky start after banning a media member.
Chad Withrow said to Marcellus, "Deion's style is old school in a lot of ways with his team and how demanding he is. Yet he blocks people from press conferences when they challenge him. He does other things that kind of contradict what he stands for or what he says he's about."
