McDaniel, formerly the running backs coach for the Sacramento Mountain Lions in the United Football League, disclosed how he met his wife at a nightclub after a game.

The story involved a playful interaction with a running back dancing with McDaniel’s future wife, Katie Hemstalk.

Mike revealed his now-wife was dancing with one of his running backs. In a playful manner, he jokingly said to the running back, “Listen, you’re not dancing with her anymore or you’re not playing with this team next year.”
