NFL Draft: Mark Sanchez Interview, New York Jets
August 9th, 2009 | by admin |
Sporting a dark green tie purc and a New York Jets sports cap, now former USC Quarterback Mark Sanchez came down to the Interview Room at Radio City Music Hall to a small group of media people including yours truly about 30 minutes ago from the start of this blog post.
Sanchez fielded a set of questions starting with my query to determine if it was true he left USC early to avoid the possibility of losing to Cal this year. The Jets’ newest signal called got a kick out of that one and recalled the last game played at Berkeley, a rain-soaked affair that USC won when John David Booty was the quarterback, 24-17.
On the matter of how it feels to be a jet, “Oh,” he sighed, “It’s really special. I’m really grateful that Mr Mike Tannenbaum (Jets GM) and Mr. Woody Johnson (Jets owner) made the trade (up to the number 5th pick, trading places with the Cleveland Browns, who gave their first- and second-round picks, and adding defensive end Kenyon Coleman, safety Abram Elam and quarterback Brett Ratliff)
But Sanchez added “Nothing’s been accomplished yet, I’ve only gotten into a uniform. It’s going to take a lot of practice and hard work.
The underclassman Sanchez who has a 14-2 record at USC offered that the reason he came out early (he has one more year of eligibility) was a personal decision arrived at after the Rose Bowl and after talking it through with his family and his high school coach Bob Johnson. “I thought about it long and hard and ..this is what I really want to do.”
Will Not Hold Out On Jets
Sanchez’ agent David Dunn told me they don’t anticipate a hold out situation to develop, but he’s concerned about the economy’s impact on the ability to get good endorsement deals. “It’s definetely a factor, Dunn said.
