It definitely will. It'll PLUMMET might even go undrafted. Seriously, lying about the death of a fake girlfriend? Who the hell wants a psycho on their team? Can't imagine how his teammates would look at him.

Notre Dame is completely backing the he was hoaxed take. Claims private investigators had documented online chatter from the perpetrators talking about their ruse

--Notre Dame Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick
This dummy. The fact that I use so much social media is why I'm extremely skeptical of Te'o's claims he was duped.
Three years of dating the girl and he never saw her? Not even on Skype? He didn't have her Facebook page? He only had her twitter and phone calls?
So the story about him meeting her after a game at Stanford came from where? His brother thought Te'o had met her in Hawaii several times why?

This is like the Tiger Woods story again except this time, everyone sees the coverup failure happening from a mile away

@EmilyNoonan Let this be a warning to any girl who thinks ab dating Te'o. If you get a terminal disease he won't visit you. Or go to your funeral. #catch
this is actually a good point even though she is joking.
this guys girl who he is so in love with is in a bad car wreck and has cancer and he never thinks to visit her? really?

Exactly. I hate the Irish because of rivalry, but what they did to that poor girl is ****ing horrible.

Re: Deadspin: Manti Te
Haha, this is just too weird.
So we are supposed to believe that he was together with a girl and never saw her on skype or anything while calling her "the love of his life"..

I think you're overreacting. If he shows up to the combine and does well I don't see his stock getting that big of a hit. I don't think he'll have a chance of being a top 15 pick(judging by some mocks) because of the incident but I wouldn't label him a psycho but the situation is just extremely embarrassing.. Teams like press as long as it isn't bad press, teams have selected terrible characters before, teams have signed players coming off of jails, teams have had murderers on their teams, etc.. If he's talented he'll get drafted and high

Re: Deadspin: Manti Te
Manti is not going to the senior bowl and he is not the type of athlete to blow up the combine, in fact many believe he will struggle there.
I dont agree wth the assessment of him not being drafted, he will....but he is not going to do himself any favors at the combine.

Re: Deadspin: Manti Te
Does anyone think Te'o did this stint for publicity? What's a better story then having a great season after your "GF" and gradmother dieing? He's young, naive, probably a dumb jock(I know ND is a great school) and he probably thought this would elevate him to being one of the most liked athletes in the country..
