FLORHAM PARK -- He surely heard it. Avoiding the clatter was impossible. The unfortunate bounces of a few Christian Hackenberg passes created instant internet hysteria.

Memes, videos and jokes swept the world wide web. But the man at the center of the drama wasn't listening. What was the point?

"I don't pay attention to it," Hackenberg said at his locker after the Jets concluded minicamp Thursday. "I'm a low-key guy... Whatever it is, I can't control it."

Few players on the Jets roster are a lightning rod like Hackenberg. Analysis of a couple may raise an eyebrow, but starting a sentence with "Hack..." turns all heads. He was a second-round pick last year, yet didn't play a down as a rookie. Now he's in the Jets wide-open competition, and everyone wants to know how the Penn State alum looks.

I think he starts for the JETS this year, and they go with him until they find out what he can or cant do.

He's a former PSU player that came here when many wouldn't and he could've gone to any program in the USA. He is, IMHO, one of the top 20 individuals I credit with maintaining the program during the darkest years in major college football history.

CJF has him on the sideline at the last two blue/white games and at lease two regular season games. What's more, he owns several school records.

NY Daily News ran this article a few days after the laughable Yahoo Sports BS:

Jets QB coach praises Hack

But he threw the ball in the ground and didn't mention Franklin once.

FIRE. YOU. FOR. RESPECTING. HACKENBERG.

As a Penn Stater would you rather have Hack succeed or fail.
