WTFFFF!! Although there was this comment:

================================
"But there is no SSA record there of the death of Lennay Marie Kekua, that day or any other. Her passing, recounted so many times in the national media, produces no obituary or funeral announcement in Nexis, and no mention in the Stanford student newspaper."

Erm, that's because she was registered under her real name, Lennay Marie Wochinski. Lennay Marie Kekua was her professional name.
================================

Dunno if that means anything?

I guarantee all 32 teams will grill Te'o at the combine. He would be wise to send each team a detailed explanation ASAP

It doesn't. It was a reference to a scene in Seinfeld.

RAY: I've got to get going. I have a class. GEORGE: Oh ho! Class, huh? At Columbia? Let me tell you something, pal. I called the registrar's office. I checked you out. They have no record of a Ray Thomas at that school! You liar! RAY: Well, that's because I'm registered under my full legal name, Raymond Thomas Wochinski. Ray Thomas is my professional name. GEORGE: You mean alias.

Yeah, he could have never met her or they used a different girl to pretend she was this character for in-person meetings.

There's absolutely no way he wasn't in on it. Someone found out in December, and his family panicked and gave some BS explanation to the school. Nothing adds up here. The chick's picture is of a completely different person, who he supposedly met several times in real life, was his girlfriend for like a year, but she says she never met him.

All we can wait for now is for Te'o to tell everyone whats really going on, because the school's explanation doesn't add up at all. This story is crazy.
That Deadspin article looks to be very well researched, so I can't see any reason to doubt it. Also, if half of what they're saying is correct, there's is zero chance that he didn't know what was going on. So the question is, if this does turn out to be true, would he fall to us or even further?

Second thing, if it's true, and he falls to us in the 1st, would we even want him?

word, that article is well put together and connects dot after dot, it's gonna take a lot to dismantle it.

Second: NO
