You guys are missing it

DrSteveBrule is exactly right

There were 2 hoaxes here, Tuiasosopo's followed by Te`o's

Tuiasosopo creates Lennay and flirts with Te`o online
they plan to meet but Lennay never shows up, he never met her
their was no relationship at all

Why did he not visit her in the hospital? Because he didn't even know her

Tuisosopo finally kills her off because Te`o keeps wanting to meet her

Now Te`o's hoax starts, he completely exaggerates the relationship between himself and this person he never met
Calls her his girlfriend, how do we know this? he said it

He admits to lying to his father, he admits to "tailoring" facts
he said he "catered" his stories so people would think he met her before she passed away, the romance wasn't escalated till after she died, by Te`o

The romance was completely Te`o, everything after September was completely Te`o, he lied to everyone, there was no danger of this girl saying, "hey wait, I'm not his girlfriend, I never met him", because she was dead

Sopo created Tennay, but Te'o created the romance

If that's the case, manti was not the victim and as far as I'm concerned in on it.

Those Twitter DM's produced by ESPN look pretty sketchy

I didn't know you could DM someone longer than 140 characters?

The comments section is a great read.

A serial liar sits down to tell the official lie and only ESPN is like, "Good, well, that clears that up! Look, there goes Elvis!!!!"

Ted, This is STUPID! This story should not be about "trust being stupid". It should be about Manti's HEART wanting to help or befriend someone who is ill. Then it should be about the fact that PEOPLE LIE and dupe others. Just like 0bama and his flunkies are duping MILLIONS, this chick (with a little help) duped Te'o.

CAN WE MOVE ON PLEASE?

There is no story if they do not create these imaginary threads.. SEC, PAC 12 fans need to villianize the program,,,this is a great opportunity, very Rahm Emanual like.

If Te'o truly is a victim, he should be the poster-child of the on-going concussion debate . . .

Anyone else who did that sham interview would've led with "manti cops to lying to his dad and embellishing his relationship with kekua"

Schaad didn't, so frick him

WTF. By my account, one of the DM's was around 264 characters...how is that even possible. I just tried sending one to some that was that long and it obviously said error and wouldn't send

Do you think a network that hires Lou Holtz, Mike Golic, and Digger Phelps is really interested in learning the truth about ND?

Manti is just a hopeless romantic, according to his team of attorneys and advisors.

Also, didn't Deadspin or someone report a few days ago that Roninah deleted the Kekua account

Yet someone had re-established it and was using it to troll, I.E. make an "announcement at 12 p.m. Pacific Time" which later just became a troll

That, coupled with the Photoshopped-looking DM's, looks pretty sketchy
