It was a topic of discussion all day on Sirius College Sports....it was noticed.
Probably "geniouses" who read some of the crap on this message board.

Like THIS guy?
You could remove all doubt that you have a cranium as vacuous as a Hoover upright.....simply by severing your neck.
49 Minutes now.........and still "crickets"
And not mentioning CJF does this how?Perhaps he intentionally did it to shift focus away from his less than stellar performance this season.
Shouldn't YOU be thanking @Peetz Pool Boy Pool Boy every day on this board?Again ---- Hackenberg can remove all doubt as to the answer of that question by simply making some 10-second statement.
49 hours now. Still crickets. Chirp, chirp.
29 of the 30 NFL coaches are not named Bill O'Brien. I believe Hackenberg made a big mistake not including Franklin in his NFL announcement. It is now a topic he will have to answer for at the combine. This was also mentioned on nfl.com as something teams will be looking at. He may have cost himself some spots in the upcoming draft and thus some money. A stupid decision by from all accounts a smart person.
Jameis Winston's draft stock did not suffer. Period.
The comment will not affect him at all. He's a kid that will interview well with teams too.As much as I like Hack for coming to PSU and bringing others with him, I think he is a bit of a headcase. This shows a bit of lack of maturity and professionalism. NFL teams might think, I wonder if he disagrees with our system if he'll make it personal?
I have no doubt that Hack's comments were noticed.
Also --- he has had 48 hours now to say something like "my comments from Saturday have received a bit of negative press, I want to say that I really appreciated Coach Franklin's efforts on my behalf over the last 2 years. I made a mistake by not mentioning him specifically on Saturday and I wish to correct any negative vibes that resulted from such."
Hackenberg, of course, hasn't said that. If I were his advisor, I'd suggest Franklin say such (even if Hackenberg thinks Franklin is the Devil Reincarnate).
Hack didn't thank his mom or dad either. Headline: Hack hates his parents!
Hack didn't thank Jesus either. Headline: Hack hates Jesus!
C'mon, kids! This is a kid speaking extemporaneously into a camera. I have no idea what I would say or how I would say it under such circumstances. But I know some of you would tear each syllable apart and impart meanings to all of it that I never dreamed of.
Please stop. It's embarrassing.
See --- here's the thing. Hackenberg, or at least his advisors --- he must have heard something about how his comments have been perceived over the last 48 hours.
This could all go away if Hackenberg just takes 1 minute and says "oops, I should have mentioned Coach Franklin on Saturday, it was an error of omission. I thank him for his efforts to help me over the last 2 years."
Hackenberg doesn't even have to believe that. Simply suck it up and say it.
Yet, 48 hours later. Crickets.
Leaders --- true leaders --- know that the skies will not always be blue in life. They don't go burning bridges and setting wildfires though during those cloudy periods.

I would expect a hell of a lot more maturity from YOU in this situation.Who cares about the draft? I don't.
Hack did not show any class or maturity in this instance. It may not be important on the football field, but I did expect more maturity from him in this situation.
If I were a recruit, I'd be much more worried about sharing a locker room with a disease vector like Jabrill Peppers. I'd probably stock up my locker with baby wipes and bleach to disinfect anything that guy touchesWell, in the meantime, his comments will be used as a negative by Penn State's competitors.
This is a good opportunity for Hackenberg to show that he "bleeds blue and white" (a direct quote of his from Saturday).
It just takes 10 seconds to make comment (a).
