How Dak Prescott's mother once shut down Nick Saban on the recruiting trail

Cowboys rookie quarterback Dak Prescott won't compete in a football game this weekend while the Cowboys have a bye week for the wildcard round of the NFL playoffs, before hosting the divisional-round game at AT&T Stadium on Jan. 15.

So what to do in the free time?

Tony Romo went to Cabo San Lucas during the Cowboys' 2007 bye week. Prescott joined the Dallas-area show Inside the Huddle with former Cowboys fullback Tyler Clutts this week instead.

He had much to say.

Among the topics discussed: his late mother's mentality raising Dak and his two brothers, the Cowboys greats he's looked up to and the hard work that goes into preparing for each NFL game.
