He's just trolling you dude. Playing devil's advocate....going against the grain. No sane person can be hoaxed, or believes Te'o was hoaxed. No normal person thinks this guy is some innocent victim. He's a weirdo pathological liar, who probably suffers from teh gay


I definitely think he lied out of embarrassment at some point. But anyone who thinks he made the whole thing up is just a fool who hates ND and wants to laugh at them. Because there isn't a shred of evidence to think he made it ALL up.

That's bullshite

Something is definitely up if he can't sit in front of a podium and answer questions from the media. He's going to Lance route so his answers can be mapped out before hand

What? This has nothing to do with Notre Dame. And I would argue the opposite. Only someone who knights for all things Notre Dame could possibly think Te'o was not complicit in this hoax.

I'm sure the hand-picked ND hack reporter will ask lots of hard hard hitting questions.

"My girlfriend's parents"

The way he kept repeating those words after the Mich. State game leads me to think that Notre Dame is full of rapists, murderers, and straight up thieves. Or maybe the fact Brian Kelly killed a kid, there were alleged rapists on the team, and that Te'o is a liar who used this story to mount an awards campaign leads me to think this. You Yankees are fricking sick, dude.

Some Hollywood writer just trashed the heartwarming script he's been working on and started all over with a whole different angle..

Finally read the Deadspin article.

Weird shite, man. It's awesome though...at the very best, one of the most praised CFB players in the country had an online relationship and was catfished, and at worst he's a completely shady, lying, unmoral piece of shite. Either way, he'll be ridiculed for years for this.

That's my thougt. Either he's in on it, making him a dishonest piece of shite looking for publicity, or he was duped hard and therefore one of the most pathetic sports figures in recent history.

So? He lied. He said they had met. End of story. He also knew before the NC game that it was a hoax. Why not come clean before?

I think he made it up for publicity in mid September, not thinking it would become national news all year like it did and constantly being asked about it and then he couldn't remember all the details he lied about so had to keep lying.

What probably happened was the fake girlfriend started friending Manti's friends, commenting on their photos, etc., Manti got caught and chose to perpetuate the lie rather than come clean.


Did she even have a facebook? She only had a twitter? How can you date a person online, that only has a fricking TWITTER and one picture.





He had to know at some point.
