I'll wait til more info comes out, but it sounds like two things: 1. Manti was catfished. 2. Manti is a closeted homosexual.
Woah. That's very good theory there. Even if he's caught lying, consequences would still be better than revealing that (if it was true). Personally I wouldn't care but there's a possibility it would effect acceptance for both of them within their social circles.
I don't buy his or ND's comments that say he was fooled. It seems like he was in on this. This is such a ridiculous story. The last comment from Negandhi is spot on Kevin Negandhi @KNegandhiESPN Te'o hoax: 1) how was this kept quiet before NC? 2) how did ND not know? 3) who in their right mind would do this besides George Costanza?
They credited Deadspin too because they knew if they didn't Deadspin would raise hell about ESPN like it usually does.
Still a great LB. If the whole story is a cover-up for homosexuality, he shouldn't drop in my opinion, but still might. In that case, second round, take him! If it was all just a publicity stunt gone wrong, then no thanks; we don't need that.
Woody johnson just got a mega boner "With the 9th pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the New York Jets select.."
What a letdown. Being from Hawaii, this was my dude. I would have been happy to take him with the 9th round pick even if he didn't pan out, just to have a Jets' jersey with a Hawaii guy's name on it. Blah.
Well, WW85 said he'd be a top 5 pick and wouldn't drop to #9 unless something drastic happened. Well, this is it. LOL Unbelievable.
