I bet he didn't expect it to blow up like this (if we was in fact in on it with this other guy)

If he was in on it, it is really weird to be doing that with another dude.

No way he is a victim. He made up the meeting her part in 2009 and her coming out to Hawaii. Hell she is tweeting condolences for his grandma hours before she dies of cancer? Anyone with a brain would know that is not likely to happen. Also ND says they were told about this on Dec26 and they never mention it leading up to the title game and continue to let reporters tell the story of Manti playing for his dead girlfriend. What a joke. Manti has some explaining to do and so does ND. What a joke.

It's pretty crazy how news outlets will take social media as fact without any background checking and just run with it.

At absolute best, he's a liar. At worst, he's a lying liar.

This is what gets me about the whole saga. There were dozens of outlets reporting this story throughout the entire year. How in the world did none of them ask any questions about this at all?

Oh GMAFB.  Victim?  Hogwash.  He's either incredibly stupid, or he was in on it.  It details Te'o's encounters with her, in person for sh*t's sake.  So he's a liar or he's convinced himself that she was real.

This whole thing was concocted straight out of the Kauffman & Lawler Cookbook to get Te'o and Notre Dame more pub en route to the Heisman.

Might explain why Te'o sucked huge ass in the title game he knew his fake dead girlfriend was going to be found out. That plunging sound is Te'o draft stock.

All of those picture of Manti T'eo missing tackles are really pictures of him hugging his girlfriend.

In his defense, if someone can talk you into being a Mormon, you could probably be tricked into believing anything.
