There's only one reason someone waits until late on a Fri to give an interview and that is to keep people from seeing it

Did he get hoaxed again? He's like Patrick from Spongebob.

Looks like this is about to turn into a deadspin vs. ESPN feud.

Well...it was a "secret interview" so no one was going to ever see it anyway.

Because a lot of people on the Internet are weird and like to watch people fall from grace. They couldn't care less about the truth... their minds are already made up.

It's like the Salem witch craft trials. Manti Te'o is their "witch".

That's not why I wanted him to be part of it. I was actually hoping, for his sake, that he was a part of it because if he wasn't he becomes the laughing stock of an entire nation. The media calls him naive, I call him one of the dumbest people to ever live.

His explanation of why he didn't make an attempt to go see his gf on her death bed makes him sound like a cold, callous bitch.

He, in fact, communicated with the alleged hoax perpetrator, Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, on Jan. 16, the day Deadspin.com broke the story. Te'o said Tuiasosopo apologized and tried to explain himself. After the interview, Te'o showed Schaap Twitter direct messages from Tuiasosopo that contained an apology for orchestrating the hoax.

uh, there is no such thing as a Twitter direct message

Agree, he's a total idiot if he was completely fooled- the Samoan Simple Jack.

I'm really curious I have been away since the first news reports came out of him being hoaxed (which I just assumed he was in on it)

An yet he's smart enough to get into Notre Dame. The #1 sign that this angle is horseshite. We're not talking about a shitty state school. He got into NOTRE DAME. The supposedly most hallowed football institution in football. How did this guy get through the NCAA clearinghouse? Did Tuissisopo take the ACT for him?
