They started talking on twitter on the 10th so I guess soon after


He knew her for four years!

TE'O: Oct. 15 was the official date. Of last year. I've known her for four years. So we've been friends.

Then she tweets him and boom they're dating? Without ever meeting? Except he's said he's met her but now says he never did.

Question Verlander... do you answer emails from Nigeria?

Wow.

Which, if true, means the ND administration lied. So why should we believe anything else they say?

TE'O: She was in that hospital for about two months.

SI: Wow, did she get out?

TE'O: She didn't get out. She went from there. Remember she got in the accident and she was in a coma. We lost her, actually, twice. She flatlined twice. They revived her twice. It was just a trippy situation.

I like when he asked him if she was from hawaii, and he totally blew off the question.

Come on, greenwave, it's normal not to know what injuries the "love of your life" had after a major accident, right?

SI: I just want to make sure. Lennay had an iPad. She wrote a series of 12 letters to you every Friday before a game. Who read these to you?
TE'O: Her brother or her sister. Noa is her twin brother.
SI: How long was each letter?
TE'O: It was about a page.
SI: That will be one of the things you look forward to.
TE'O: Her words run through my head. One of the words in her letter was, "Babe, after every quarter, instead of looking around, close your eyes and thank the Heavenly Father for another quarter and focus yourself. Just focus on the here and now."

He said "she saw him"...not "he saw her" or "we saw each other".

Almost as if he was waiting for this to come out so he could say he never said he saw her that weekend.

I know Manti a little from two classes I had with him (first name basis, but not well enough to call him a friend),


He called a girl he had never seen or skyped the "love of his life." I think it's safe to assume he would have considered you a friend

Ok, so there you go...this is pretty much the only thing that people should be pointing at and asking for an explanation on?

The only scenario that will make me feel any sort of sympathy, or more like understanding, is that he's gay.

It still doesn't make what he did ok, he's a POS either way IMO, but being a gay professional athlete would be pretty much career suicide. You wouldn't be able to function with your teammates.

Has there ever been an openly gay pro athlete? I can't think of one.

(Not saying that I think this is what happened btw)

I strongly believe he wasn't initially involved in this thing. He got catfished by this dude in Cali and eventually found out.


But he was friends with the guy. From Deadspin:

"Great night with my bro @MTeo_5! #Heisman #574L," Ronaiah tweeted on Nov. 23, the night before the game.

So he's with the catfisher as late as Nov 23rd.

SI: She couldn't communicate?

No. She could only breathe. One of the miraculous things was when I talked to her and she would hear my voice her breathing would pick up. Like quickly, and then she would start crying. But her breathing would quicken, and she would start crying. So her brother was in the room with the nurse. They were monitoring her. She said, "Who is she on the phone with?" Her boyfriend. She was like, "That's amazing. She doesn't do that with anybody else." So that happened. And then she flatlined and we were losing her.
