On its way
It's no where near the whole thread on all the craziness. But, better than nothing

Uncle is probably part of the cover up.... Got him on some local station where he's obviously called in before.... Get some information out there, but not too detailed and gets the finger pointed elsewhere.
All while Manti is being given the coaching of his life.
This is PR Damage Control 101 shite

I was thinking the same thing as I was listening.

And what makes it great, is there's honest, probably a lot of truth in what his uncle was saying. I can buy the shady mofo and what he was doing.....trying to latch onto someone popular in the polynesian (however you spell it) community.
The thing that I've been saying all along is what is the timing here? If you read that SI transcript it is clear as day that Manti was telling a story. He didn't have his shite together and a lot of stuff just didn't feel right. That was from mid-October and not early December when Manti say he found out.
I think the truth is Manti was trolled by the other kid and he was to embarrassed to admit it. Manti then saw the publicity and public support he was receiving for having a "dead" girlfriend so he ran with it. I highly doubt he is some innocent victim. That's last on my list of 4 scenarios (#1 being the one I laid out already, 2 being he was in on it from the start, 3 that he is gay and this was a cover, 4 is that he was completely naive and innocent of everything).

Bingo. Logical and not too conspiracy theoryish.

I don't think Te'o was complicit the whole time.
I think he realized he was duped and was too embarrassed to tell the truth, so he started to lie.
The 100% naive scenario seems unlikely, IMO.
The whole Tuiasosopo scenario has me convinced he's the real mastermind here.

Falling asleep on the phone. He said they talked long hours every night for four months. It was not a real person. Nobody could possibly troll that much.
Didn't happen, no way, no how!
Te'o was lying to reporters all season.

This is exactly what proves he was in on it for what ever reason. Also you mean to tell me he didn't even go to the funeral??? WTF. Also combine all that with they NEVER contacted law enforcement when some freak is out there and knows everything about you and was obviously trying to eventually do some sort of harm to you. Again WTF....verdict is he is either gay and lied his arse off or embellished the hell out of a story from someone f'ing with him....either way he is a POS.
Anyone know if he would have been kicked out of ND for being openly gay.?..with it being such a holy rolly school and all

The more that comes out about this Ronniah guy its making me believe that he totally fuked Manti's head and Manti no matter how far he took the lies(Manti clearly told many lies) he is truly a victim. This Ronniah guy was truly out to get Manti and his family. I put nothing past him as far as how long he was playing this game or how elaborate this was

even go to the funera?
Wasn't it conveniently "scheduled" on a game day?

At 9 AM.
He asked a coach what time it was. 12:01 PM. He then said to himself that's when they closed the casket.

And she was laid to rest at 9AM.
I haven't been to many funerals but that doesn't seem right at all. That means they would go to the thing before being buried at like 7AM.

Yep and he had to put it all aside and play

Initially perhaps.
But the whole media blitz after her death....I don't buy that he wasn't aware. Especially with that whole SI transcript.

It seems clear to nearly everyone that he was in on it. Why are you so hardcore in Te'o's corner? You a fruit too?

Yes, and why the frick is no one talking about Ronaiah introducing Lennay to the fricking NFL player? That's a damn flashing sign he's working a scam.
That's a much bigger indicator than all of this ridiculous hypothetical gay talk
