New York Jets coach Rex Ryan defends Geno Smith after the quarterback was indirectly criticised by former teammates at West Virginia College.

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan has defended Geno Smith after the quarterback was criticised by his former college for a lack of leadership.

A number of Smith's former teammates at West Virginia slated elements of the team from last season in The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, with one saying that they are better off this season than they were in the last campaign when Smith was a member of the side.

However, Ryan believes that such comments are uncalled for and show a lack of respect for Smith's achievements with the college.

"It tells me I'm glad my kid never went there, I can tell you that much," Ryan told the New York Daily News.

"I don't get that. Geno was a tremendous player for West Virginia. I don't know, you have to ask them.

"I certainly don't get that. When somebody leaves your deal, I guess that's up to them. You have to ask them."

Geno Smith is currently in competition with Mark Sanchez for the starting quarterback jersey at the Jets.
