Let’s see what the hoopla is all about.

Today NFL legend RG III’s wife Grete Griffin took to X to share a hilarious response to it, saying, “Coach wasn’t lying😂 @RGIII @DeionSanders.” The tweet had RG’s picture wearing a green hoody with a gold necklace, which is the exact description of what Coach Prime said. Well, this surely shows that wifey Grete doesn’t agree with what Deion Sanders said about RG Griffin III. As she subtly gave it back to Coach Prime with utmost pride. But what made her do this?
