‘It started with Doug (Marrone). Like I said, the respect I have for him and what he has done-and not just what he has done in the NFL. I have a lot of respect for what he did at Syracuse and where he took that program. That was not an easy job. I think anybody who is in our profession knows that. Then playing them last year, seeing some of the things. We have a lot of common friends. So there is a respect level that is there. I think that probably starts there.’
