Courtney Aurillo — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 04:45:21 +0000

Courtney Aurillo and Nick Casale are back with another Podcast, this time they break down the 2012 New York Jets draft. Was passing on Melvin Ingram a mistake? Nick certainly thinks so but Courtney says in Rex she trusts, so hopefully Quinton Coples is the answer.

Courtney and Nick look at all the picks and provide excellent insight on how each player can help the Jets this season. You can listen by clicking play below and make sure you never miss an episode by subscribing:

Phil Sullivan — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 05:12:32 +0000

JetNation had the opportunity this week to talk to Hayden Smith. For those of you that don’t know, Hayden is new to football and Nick Casale spoke to him about his background, the process of converting from rugby to football and why he decided to sign with the Jets. You can listen to the audio of this interview by clicking play (bottom).

We do want to thank Hayden for taking the time to talk to us, right as he was moving to the U.S. Hayden was very professional and seems like he is going to be a solid locker room addition. Here is one answer that stood out:

Nick Casale: What made you decide to pick the Jets?

Hayden Smith: “I was very impressed with the organization itself, the people involved they took a personal approach. The facilities were outstanding. It was more for me and my situation, I needed a place where I had a good connection with the coaches and the whole staff where I felt like it was going to be a good environment for me to learn the game and progress my knowledge base…”

08/25/10 Jets Camp Report – Hofstra

Phil Sullivan — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 04:54:08 +0000

On Wednesday night the New York Jets held family night at Hofstra. They practiced at 6pm and it was a light practice with a game coming up Friday against the Washington Redskins.

There are numerous fan accounts appreciative of the Jets returning to Hofstra even for one day. Along with thanking the Jets for being so gracious when it comes to autograph singings. This was also the case on Tuesday at Florham Park.

The highlight of the day had very little to do with the Jets. No it has nothing to do with Darrelle Revis either. Here is a video of a fan that ran of the field and how he was, well watch the video for yourself. You can read more fan accounts of the practice in our NY Jets forum.

Jason Davis On Hard Knocks

Phil Sullivan — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 14:24:27 +0000

Right before mini-camp Jason Davis was interviewed by Mouthpiece Sports Buzz. Jason Davis is a full back for the New York Jets, last year he was on the practice squad most of the year. He was asked about the locker room and said it is filled with funny guys and that will be evident on Hard Knocks. He said the biggest thing for him with the cameras around is that he doesn’t know what to do with his hands.

Jason also talks about his career and bouncing around the league. He says it is about being in the right spot. He wants to play football as long as he can and seems to be enjoying the ride.

When he was asked about the expectations for the upcoming season, Jason said it is Super Bowl or bust. They believe this is a talented team and the bar is set really high. You can watch the video below and there is a discussion thread in the New York Jets forum.

Step Off Holmes, Get Out Of My Way

Phil Sullivan — Sat, 01 May 2010 02:26:05 +0000

Recently acquired New York Jets wide receiver Santonio Holmes made the news earlier today. Various media reports claimed that Holmes was thrown off a plane. Randy Lange on NYJets.com says these reports are not true.

According to the Allegheny County, Pa., Police Department.

“As previously reported, [Santonio] Holmes was NOT removed from any airplane (4/29/2010),” a media release from the police department read. “He was asked to remove his Ipod (at one point), in which he complied. There’s no further information to report.”

JetNation.com was not on the plane so we don’t have a first hand account of this situation. As with most important things in life, we defer to the Beastie Boys.

“Step off homes – get out of my way”.

Santonio Holmes Suspended 4 Games

admin — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 14:37:30 +0000

The NFL has suspended newly acquired New york Jets wide receiver Santonio Holmes for four games. The Jets were aware that the suspension was coming and that obviously factored into the price they paid (5th round draft pick). Holmes, who had 79 catches and 1,248 receiving yards last season has had a lot of negative publicity recently. Rich Cimini recapped a lot of it in the Daily News today.

Holmes, 26, was cited for marijuana possession in 2008, resulting in a one-game paid suspension by the Steelers. That was strike one, according to the league policy. To land the suspension, he either tested positive or missed a drug test.

Holmes didn’t say what led to the suspension. He said he’s being “accountable for what happened and I’m ready to move forward.” But he didn’t sound accountable when he said, “Sometimes you have no control over things that happen.”

The former first-round pick also refused to take responsibility for two recent controversial remarks on his Twitter page. He told a critical fan to “kill urself” and he made a marijuana reference by tweeting, “wake n bake” – slang for getting up in the morning and smoking pot.

Rex Ryan and the coaching staff will have his hands full managing Holmes and keeping him on the right path. There is no questioning Holmes talent though as the video below shows.
