This wont hurt him in the draft at all.0

My understanding is that he was catfished. He fell for a girl he met online, but never actually met her in real life. I'm sure that has happened to many people. It just sucks that it was wide open for EVERYONE to see.
(
Except he supposedly talked to her on the phone, so he was in on it.
well when someone is catfished a lot of the time phone calls are involved.
but i still think he is involved.
It does seem weird that the guy they are saying created the "gf" is supposedly a friend of Manti's. But then again, that can still be a catfish situation.
Hopefully the truth will come out.0 -

Stallworth? Vick? It's sports.... clearly, they do not care as long as the player is good.0 -

i can see you havent' watched many drafts. stuff like this makes a difference. now if he was a proven NFL player? it would have much less of an effect.0 -

Um, apparently I know more about football than you do. The NFL has players that have been arrested...and served time...for much, much more serious offenses than a fake gf. Its about the money and Te'o is a damn good player.0 -

you silly goose...like i said above...if he was a proven NFL player then he could commit murder on live tv and still get a good contract but when you are entering the draft its things like this that have a big impact. of course this is a whole new category of crazy.0 -

Lol, so no college player has ever had a good fraft after some negative publicity? Lets see, Vince Young was arrested for dogfighting I think, a month before the draft and it didn't hurt him or his contract. And that was an arrest not a fake death of a gf.0 -

Manti has won many awards this season. He is a great player. I can't imagine this having any affect on his NFL career.0 -

I said I think...he's had a couple arrests and I don't remember which one it was. The point was he was arrested before the draft and it didn't hurt his draft or contract. And he's not the only college player who's had similiar circumstances and not been affected in the draft.0 -
Jimmy Kingman @JimmyKingman
NFC Scout on Manti Te'o: "We likely will just cross him off our big board altogether."
See? he is already being affected by this and it has only just begun. just wait until more of this insanity gets out...he will plummet down the draft boards or fall off them all together.0 -

No, but his play vs. 'Bama will hurt his draft position0 -

What about either of those?
Stalworth was drafted with no character questions. He has been signed and cut multiple times since his "character issues".
Vick: Drafted #1 over all with no character questions. Signed a incentive laden contract, at the league minimum, with the Eagles after jail. He got 100 mil AFTER he had that great season.
Te'o will drop in the draft because of this, but I don't think the 5 or 6th round. Maybe the bottom of the 1st.0 -

Annnnnnnd the story twists again!
Arizona Cardinals fullback on Manti Te’o's fake girlfriend: ‘No, she’s real.’
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/arizona-cardinals-fullback-manti-te-os-fake-girlfriend-051106606--ncaaf.htmlLennay Kekua, Manti Te’o’s fake girlfriend, might not be so fake after all.
Arizona Cardinals fullback Reagan Mauia told ESPN that he not only knew Kekua, but that he was close with her family.0 -
May end up with an already-strong team this way. Perhaps that was why they did it. DUN DUN DUN!Te'o will drop in the draft because of this, but I don't think the 5 or 6th round. Maybe the bottom of the 1st.0 -
ohhh poor Te'o
Now that is just flat out funny!0 -

And so did his father.My understanding is that he was catfished. He fell for a girl he met online, but never actually met her in real life. I'm sure that has happened to many people. It just sucks that it was wide open for EVERYONE to see.(
but in interviews he claimed to have met her...
Will be interesting to see how this all plays out. If he was duped then shame on whoever tried to play a nasty trick on him. If he set up the whole thing then it makes you wonder why? What was he trying to accomplish? Was someone giving him a hard time about not having a girl so he made one up? Who knows but I'm sure sooner or later it will be all over the news. Those vultures are circling this one i'm sure. Its not like he pretended to have cancer and collected donations from people if he did in fact set it all up.0
