I wonder what kind of quotes would have come out if he had a great game and ND won? Oh what could have been...
Think if he won the Heisman and the MNCG MVP.
It would have been epic.

I think this idea that Manti would create a completely made-up person for publicity is much, much more insane, for a large variety of reasons.
He didn't make her up for publicity. He made her up to get his family and teammates off his back about not having a girlfriend.
It was just serendipitous that it led to positive publicity when she "died."

3 years?
Supposedly, they were "dating" for less than a year. They first "met" online in 2009, very little interaction.

Jim Rome is going to burn this guy hard...in his interview with Rome he tearfully talked about losing Lennay to Leiukemia...welp, turns out Rome's dad died of Leiukemia a few years ago and Rome opened up to Te'o about it on air...Te'o goes along with it the whole time...I'm sure Rome is going to have some red arse over this one

Why is it so hard to believe he got duped?
Ugh because the timeline does not add up. If he was mentally retarded maybe I would believe he got duped, but he is a "scholar athlete"

I could see that going either way.

here is the whole thing
from the point of the death, te'o had to know. that is the latest point of deniability
mainly for the fact that he couldn't have found out she died if she was fake

So in the CNN article someone linked he mentioned her by name in a story that ran on December 30th. 24 days after he allegedly found out she wasn't real.

Nah, Schaap will just lob softballs and let Manti spin his story. Hopefully he trips up or makes up a more inconsistent story.

Manti won't go in the same building as Rome for the rest of his life. Rome is probably fuming. That might turn into the 2nd fight of Rome's broadcast journalism career.

2 days after he found out she wasn't real he told the Heisman comity how he hated cancer because he lost his grandma and GF to it.
