The off-camera interview with a lawyer present - yeah, I'm not expecting any bombshells here.

Exclusive interview and still spending all of an hour or so fact-checking, if at all. Top notch.

I for one will be shocked if it turns out that that football player lied about how far he got with a girlfriend.

why wouldnt he be lawyered up? seems smart to me, even if the lawyer is there just to make sure theres no a/v recording.

What's the potential liability here? He's not under oath or in the middle of a criminal investigation or anything. Why the lawyer? It doesn't seem like things can go too badly here.

It's not like his draft stock isn't going to drop because he got tripped up on a technicality; teams are going to pull the trigger on him or not pull the trigger on him based on their overall evaluation, and the NFL teams interested in him are going to investigate and interview the **** out of him anyway.

ESPN most certainly the friendliest place for T'eo to go. Totally in bed with NCAA and NFL and will certainly do what they can to assist, within reason.

Te'o in good shape imo. The general public doesn't have the time or motivation to keep up with the mind blowing developments this thing has churned out.

That can be accomplished without having the lawyer sitting at the table during the questioning.

totally true. Most people in my life are like "i don't get it, who cares?"

Having a lawyer is probably the smartest thing manti has done this far.

And, meanwhile it's the most fascinating story we've seen in years...

yeah if there are no further major developments with the story soon, it will be mostly forgotten by Monday for most people...

@darrenrovell: RT @McMurphyESPN Te'o tells @JeremySchaap he was not involved in creating girlfriend hoax. "There is no way I could be a part of this"

yes, i know, but im still not seeing the downside to having him there?

i realize hes not testifying or anything legal, but it cant hurt to have your attorney present.

eta: and you have to think its his advisers who wanted the attorney present, right?

Someone needs to get Tuiasosopo and those two twitter friends STAT. Would love for them to say, "yeah, it happened, but man, T'eo was totally bull****ting you guys with a lot of what he said - talk about the king of exaggeration".

Having representation present is such a no brainer for so many really obvious reasons. I'm shocked that people are even questioning that.

The lawyer is probably from the talent agency. They are helping protect his image and draft stock, not just legal liabilities.

Seriously, we have god knows how many paparazzi tracking Lindsay Lohan's every move years after she was last relevant, and we can't find a single person willing to track them down?
