Jones served as head coach of the Oklahoma State Cowboys from 1984 to 1994 after five years as an assistant under Jimmy Johnson.
Days after the 1988 season, Oklahoma State and the NCAA released the results of an unusual joint investigation into the football program.
The investigation revealed several major violations dating prior to Johnson's tenure, principally involvement in a "bidding war" for Dykes out of high school.
In Jones' last six years, the Cowboys won only seven games in Big Eight play, including three winless conference records.
Pat also provided in-studio gameday commentary for Fox Sports Southwest college football programming.
