re: Just in case you were wondering, Christian Hackenberg really sucks at QB

basically Major Applewhite with slighlty more athletic ability and slight less mental makeup

If you think Hackenberg and Applewhite are the same I have a hard time believing you watched either play much in college.

Hackenberg is FAR more like Virginia Tech's Logan Thomas.

Applewhite had moxie and could will Texas to victory despite his physical limitations. As much as it pains me to say as an Aggie the dude was a winner who could never be counted out.

Hackenberg folded under pressure damn near every time he encountered it. He never improved anywhere close to the level his freshman year indicated he could. If you got up on PSU it was game over b/c you could just blitz and Hack would fall apart.

If you are going to compare CH to a Texas QB it should be Chris Simms who was another dude who "looked the part" but didn't have "it" when it came down to winning time.
