Jamalisms Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 The Catfish guy is getting in on this: http://gma.yahoo.com...topstories.html ....also: "One of Te'o's teammates who asked not to be identified told ABC News that the news of the hoax has been "just crazy" and that he believes that Te'o was a victim of the hoax. When asked what the team has been saying, he said, "I can't talk. Team rules." The teammate said that Te'o did have a local girlfriend since last summe r, but declined to elaborate."

scine09 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Can we just take everyone at their word and forget about it? He didn't break a law or anything. The guy's reputation is ruined no matter what happened, even if he was a completely innocent bystander, which I don't think is for a second what happened. Time for the media to drop it.

tinman Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 The real question is had this kid played for Mississippi State would anyone even know about the story? Would it even matter? would he have won all those awards? Dude is a fraud playing on a team that the major networks love to HYPE to no end.. a 6 win ND will get more air time than a 9 win Ole Miss or Texas...Notre Dame is AMERICA'S college team.. Like the cowboys.. Both fade when they suck but jump right back in the lime light at the first hint of success.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonboy Posted January 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 They keep saying this wont affect his draft stock but I completely disagree. We thought one of his best attributes was his leadership. Some thought he could really be that vocal, outspoken leader in the locker room. Regardless of which story is true, we know hes either incredibly gullible and possibly even dumb. The other option is he's a sneaky liar. Maybe both. My point? Just imagine this guy trying to show any kind of authority in an NFL locker room. They'll laugh until they cry. So essentially, I would think you remove the entire "leader" attribute from his draft resume. What you're left with is a slightly above average, gullible/sneaky linebacker.

scine09 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Maybe an NFL team is behind this. They are trying to lower his stock so that they can grab him in the 1st round. I wouldn't put it past Belichick to have some girl pose as Te'o's girlfriend and then leak the story to deadspin so that everyone passes until the end of the 1st round when NE grabs him.

TitansWycheck89 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Everyone says his one on one interviews will determine his character and define his draft stock. No way is that true. It's going to be the other Notre Dame players being interviewed that will paint a more clear picture of this young man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
