Now I think that Te'O was actually fooled. He possibly believed the story the entire time. HOWEVER, he greatly exaggerated his relationship with the girl. He used this sob story to pump up his popularity and sold his sob story to every reporter that put a microphone in front of his face. Instead of this being some girl he knew from the internet, this became "the love of his life" that he "talked to on the phone for hours before falling asleep every night for four months."
I still don't believe that. It all reeks of bullshite.
Even if he was duped in the very beginning, all the blame goes on him
I really hope he doesn't get off easy. I want this thug POS to crash and burn.

To be fair, I had to Google who Carson Tinker was to remember that story.

I've been telling you this all day but you keep ignoring it...now you believe it?
He was trolled, found out and let it ride for gain.

Dude, ND might have as many questions to answer as Te'o in this situation.

Holtzman said this on Sportscenter two hours ago and it was talked about several pages back...basically no one at Notre Dame was surprised because they knew he was lying out of his arse

This is where I am, but I don't think it was for Heisman purposes. Pure attention whoring.
Maybe. He lied about his late night phone calls, the white roses, the letters before each game.
It all started with some internet friend that passed away (which was a fake), but he turned it into something much greater.

Eh, Te'o used this story to try and win CFB's most prized award.
Does that merit anger? I find it hilarious.

I can actually believe the phone calls ... that is the ultimate part of the troll...get some random girl to call a dude and pretend to be this "girl online"

Well he wasn't the caliber of player that manti was, so of course he won't get that much play. He still got his fair share of national attention.

you don't think Ronaiah & Te'o have a relationship that they've been hiding?
According to the deadspin article they were friends, but that doesn't mean Ronaiah wasn't capable of fricking him over.
According to the TMZ article, he was shady and manipulative:

Manti claimed to talk to her until they fell asleep each night with the call still connected until the next morning. He claimed that they did that "everynight" for four months. Nobody is that committed to trolling another person.
The phone call story was BS created by Manti.

It's weird that Te'o would associate with someone like that.
The kid has a deleted instagram account with pics of Te'o. Not to mention he was Te'o's honorable guest to the Stanford vs ND game awhile back.
