    How could Te'o not know she was real? Dude was definitely in on it if true.

    So by chance, this girlfriend that got him all this attention was an online girlfriend that he never met. That would be he got trolled.

    Or he was in on it and did it for attention.

    Those are the two options I'm seeing.

    Wait, so Teo never met this chick? He had an online relationship and people are freaking out that she died?

    he is either functionally retarded or he was in on it for publicity.

    unless deadspin fucked this up, which is possible

    Why would he need to even do that? Didn't his grandma actually die that day too? Why the hell wouldn't that be enough and why in god's name would he be worrying about making up a girlfriend at that point in time?

    This is so weird.

    He could have put a stop to it anytime he wanted. Instead he rode out the sympathy train to prop up his Heisman hype and his overrated ass teams national championship aspirations. Fuck that school and fuck him. I hope that I never see Notre Dame in another championship game for the rest of my life.

    Pretty obvious him and his family were in on it. He says himself he met her after a game at Stanford. She doesnt exist so thats a lie. He was in on it.

    Glad to know he's a piece of shit so now I dont feel bad for never liking him.
