Let's see if the SID is willing to make up such ridiculous denial and explanatory stories when the Indiana AG's office puts them under oath before a grand jury. My guess is the truth will come out very quickly.

Seriously, this needs to be prosecuted.

Why?

Using the steroid kerfuffles as a guide, it's probably time we stop pissing money like a fountain on these jock-sniffing escapades.

But this is a weird duck*ing story.

Oh boy, Te'o is really going to double down on this one. I'm amazed. I just don't see any way that he went three years and couldn't figure out anything was wrong. Never visited her in the hospital, never video-chatted with her, and made the kind of statements he did without ever meeting her in person.

In previous interviews, his own father said that she had visited him in Hawaii. So his whole "I never met her" line is complete BS.

I feel for the kid and don't think he's a fraud.

I met my current girlfriend online. She's Ugandan royalty and I just wired her $4000 so she could escape the turmoil in her country and come spend the rest of her life with me! I don't want to jinx it but by this time next week I should have enough cash to complete the BB practice facility, buy out our current FB staff AND expand The Rent. Fingers crossed!

Well done. I hit the first line and was like, how?!

Here is my favorite quote from the Notre Dame board:

Only thing that this story proves is that he's a naïve and good kid

Perfect. They own this kid and his story, it looks like they are willing to go down with the ship. No doubt Mike Golic will be blubbering his way around this story on the radio tomorrow, defending Teo's character. After all, he's a ND football player, so don't believe your lying eyes.

And leave the SID out of it. The kid told his own made-up story about his own personal life. Not like the SID is going to doubt him and investigate it. This wasn't something that causes your "b.s. sensors" to activate.

Now if this was the SID's plot to get phony publicity and Te'o went along, that's another matter entirely.

Sad part is next time the media does an inspirational story like this, they'll have to ask for death certificates or photos from the open-casket funeral. "Sorry, ma'am, those could be anyone's ashes in that urn. I need proof."

Kind of makes Gottlieb look like an amateur by ND fraud standards.

10% chance that Notre Dame will allow questions.

90% chance Notre Dame dug up a corpse in a potter's field and will just point to it and yell, "SEE? She's real!", and then walk out of the room.

Don't feel bad for the kid. He's already got himself a new love of his life...

I love that ESPN is being forced to run with a Deadspin story, I know this must burn their soul. They spent a good 15 minutes talking about Chip Kelly to lead off the 6pm SC knowing they had to eventually get to this.

The best thing that ND and Te'o could do is come clean now.

That being said, I really really really really hope they continue to defend Te'o and his reputation. Because then, we all win in the end.

Religious family, religious school, playing a sport with no actively gay players...

Kinda crazy that in this day and age he thought his best bet was to invent a girlfriend, but...

Well, let's just see what happens.

Come on man. We've been over this, the Rent doesn't need to be expanded until we can fill it up.
