I will wait until he tells the entire story hopefully today. From watching the athletic directors press conference last night I do believe manti was duped.

Hasn't he told his story all season? Which one are we to believe?

Take off the fanboy goggles for a second and think about how you would react if this were another player on another team.

You don't think it's a little odd he had a girlfriend for YEARS that he never met? They never spoke via Skype, webcam, etc. Nothing?

If I were Lance Armstrong, I'd buy him a Ferrari right now.

Agreed. How does one in the limelight think that they could pull off such a ruse with the sharks in the media looking for a juicy story?

so many stories coming out.

he never met her. he met her once. she went to hawaii...no, wait. she didn't go there. and the story i just linked-perhaps he realized it was a hoax, but continued to use it for sympathy points? or he knew all along.

this story is an onion. has many layers, and it stinks.

The worst part for me is that ND knew before the game but still kept the BS going.

Gotta admit that I couldn't care less about the whole scenario. But I don't blame ND for not exposing this BEFORE the championship game.
