If Manti Te'o was duped by this, can we all agree not to tell him about professional wrestling?

If Manti Te'o was really a mormon, wouldn't he have 5 or 6 fake girlfriends???

He says now that he was in an internet relationship with her, but there are countless interviews where he told people that he met her multiple times and her family. According to him he met her at Stanford in person.

None of his statements are consistent with what he's said before. I seriously doubt he was a "victim."

I'm watching the press conference, the ND AD keeps saying Teo is the "victim of this scam". I would like to ask him:

1)How can Teo have a relationship with a girlfriend he's never actually met before?

2)What's the scam? Who is doing it and what's to gain?


At the VERY least, Te'o is shady as frick for not coming clean about not actually having met/really known her when it was obvious that the story was helping buoy his heisman campaign.

Well, I was just wondering if you'd go ahead and be my fake boyfriend, so that when I am famous, I can say, "my boyfriend, BrerTiger, told me that he'd see me in heaven, and then he died. And then, the next day, I wrote our love story, which was the love story of the century, and I knew when I felt the pages turn that it was his tears of love blowing on my face".

Teo is just aw shucks level of gullible, and some pretty cruel people took advantage of that. The embarrassment from this will follow him a long time. To the people that f'ed with him this bad - I pity when the ND crowd finds out who you are and comes after you.

Well yeah, but I think it's obvious he didn't come clean because he knew what was happening all along. It was part of his plan. He's a liar and, quite frankly, a little sociopathic.

But just like an alcoholic in denial, Teo and ND will point fingers until the day they die. They were the victims, it was a scam, blah blah blah

See I disagree. Just from what I know, i think he was in on it too.

Although I don't know either way, who knows.

I wish he DID win it. The fallout now would be exponentially greater/more entertaining.

I guess he can use this as an excuse, but was when she was in a coma the first time that he ever "talked" to her? I thought they were friends for a couple of years before they started dating?

I'm sitting here and This is crazy.

Oh I definitely agree. I'm just saying even in the extreme case that you give him the benefit of the doubt on the knowledge of her "death," it's STILL shady as frick
