Star Ledger: "Giants' Steve Spagnuolo doesn't blow Jets away in interview for head coaching job, Brian Schottenheimer emerges as front-runner"

Spagnuolo, in his second season as the Giants' defensive boss, is the hottest assistant coach at the moment among NFL teams searching for a head coach. But even though he did a solid job during his interview with the Jets, he wasn't as prepared as one would expect, according to one person.

The people requested anonymity because the Jets' search to replace the fired Eric Mangini is ongoing and they are not authorized to speak for the team or the candidates involved.

Sunday, two new names emerged: Cardinals assistant head coach/offensive line coach Russ Grimm and former Ravens coach Brian Billick. Also, the Jets are expected to reach out to Colts defensive coordinator Ron Meeks this week. Boston College head coach Jeff Jagodzinski, Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier and Chargers defensive coordinator Ron Rivera are also on the Jets' radar.

Cowher's first public comments seem to confirm the belief that he simply didn't want to coach in the 2009 season and his decision to turn down the Jets had nothing to do with Johnson being out of the country this past week.

According to another person with knowledge of the team's search, the Jets had taken issue with a report that Cowher didn't want to interview with the team for that reason. Johnson is scheduled to return Monday and will sit in on all future interviews.
