Pat White's skill set probably does not translate into a great NFL QB... but for what he was asked to do at WVU, I can't imagine anybody doing it any better.
Pat White was great in the offense he ran, but that is the only offense he could be good in. He would suck at a OSU or pre- RR UM and would have been converted to a WR or DB.
Does that make more sense?
