RENTON, Wash. -- Ernest Jones IV is waiting for Mike Macdonald to pay off a bet they made in April.
Macdonald, the Seattle Seahawks' head coach, and his fifth-year middle linebacker made a friendly wager when the team brought in Nick Emmanwori -- the Seahawks' second-round draft pick -- for a predraft visit.
As Macdonald was planning to meet with the former South Carolina safety in his office that day, he enlisted Jones to join them, figuring the presence of a fellow former Gamecock would put the prospect's mind at ease.
