oh please. if the suspicion was that he cheated on his SAT's it wouldn't be the same. people just want to call him gay because they are immature.

I guess it's not so easy getting laid at a Catholic University like Notre Dame? This doesn't sound good for recruiting.

This subject has come up here and other places. It has less to do with this taking place at Notre Dame as it does that Te'o is a devout Mormon. He doesn't engage in casual, premarital sex the way the stereotypical BMOC would. One of the linked articles even suggests that the online GF thing is somewhat common among Mormon boys and men for this reason.

Of course,the opposing argument is that's all cover. The way this story has folded or unfolded, we'll never know.

Ok so that was Tui on the phone voicemails? Going into it knowing that it was a man, made that chick sound kinda not chick-ly. Biased tho...I don't want this story to ever stop. Gonna watch my first episode of Catfish now, seriously.

You are correct that it wouldn't be the same.

Whether or not he cheated on his SAT's is a MUCH less interesting topic.

Bad example really, but thanks for trying. Better luck next time.

The gay questions must have been mounting for CAA to put these voicemails out, when they were better off staying quiet. Probably worried about anything Tuiasosopo might come out and say when he "tells his side".

Also, is it just me or is that voice not super questionable? That does not sound like any female voice I've ever heard, and I'd be questioning that thing from the very beginning. Are we suppose to believe the guy never dropped voice?... Gawd Te'o is ******ed and a pos embellisher/exaggerater on top of it. There is no way this guy garners respect on any NFL team as a leader of men.

OK, so now Te'o should change his story from meeting her at the Stanford game to he met her at a club down in old SoHo

Yeah, I mean I went into it knowing it was a man, but definitely sounded like if a friend of mine was pranking me pretending to be a chick we knew. Yada yada confirmation bias, but would bet a lot Manti's gay and it's gonna come out.

Of course Manti could get any girl he wanted at ND. It is also confirmed that he has dated (is still dating?) another girl after Lennay (total smokeshow btw). Why he decided to get so close to a girl he had never met in person is unknown, but Manti claims it was because Lennay was religious, Samoan, and hit the right buttons with him and stuff.

But, honestly even if I didn't have the spoiler. The voice would be highly questionable to me, especially when I've never met the person. Never skyped, never seen her on webcam, did he get an extensive collection of pics? how many? etc. etc. The problem is all of these things are easily explained away without a way to prove otherwise. Unless someone feels like talking...

I bet there are girls out there who'd pay to roleplay being the girlfriend of a Notre Dame football player, let alone do it for free.

edit: now I'm caught up, and this post is dated.

i actually sort of agree with nate

if he turns out to be gay and felt the need to go through all of this to cover it up, it would sort of ruin this story for me and just be kinda sad.

Minute 8:07

Katie: "He later called you, what did he say to you one the phone?"
Manti: "He just basically expressed and just explained what he did and why he did it, and.."
Katie: "Did he say why he did it"
Manti: "He didnt say why... he just explained that he wanted to help people"
