I'm just saying it's possible. I have no intimate knowledge of the Sam outing and I'm glad for that.
Are you saying that it's not in the realm of possibility that it was purposeful as regard to the timing?
Marketing folks do this all the time for celebs and wannabe celebs.
Possible, yeah. But the timing is wrong if it was done for strictly publicity sake. After a good to great performance in the combine and before the draft would be the real marketing sweet spot.

I disagree but I'm not marketing expert.
News stories like this last a bit longer than usual for obvious reasons. As soon as this nears that tail end of interesting, it'll be brought back up over and over during the combine and ultimately at the draft. This story has a longer shelf life than usual and ESPN will take advantage of every available minute.
The gay lovers are being sought out now sadly. Wait until they are found and paid for their stories. Very risky.
