Don't think too much of Woods' tweet. Tuiasosopo's dad played for $C. He has probably been around the program his whole life.

There are supposedly tweets between Te'o and Tuiasosopo. What do those say? I think they were in the Deadspin article.

Tuiasosopo tweeted Woods from the account he created solely to monitor the Te'o and Kekua accounts. The evidence is circumstantial right now, but it's too much for me to dismiss as coincidence anymore.

The original was deleted at some point. The current "@LennayKay" was recreated after the Deadspin story broke. I had assumed it was an unrelated 3rd party looking to troll, but the original hoaxsters may still be behind it.

That'd be a ballsy move on their part.

I don't think it's USC, but I could be wrong. The mtns don't match for me.

For all we know, they may have leaked the story to Deadspin in an attempt to damage Te'o's draft stock.

It's amusing to read all the "experts" talk about how it will damage his draft stock. There are high draft picks every year that do far worse than get tricked by someone online.

The jabbering nonsense coming from reporters and radio hosts' mouths today is sickening. They all blame him w/o hearing a word from him. This is a kid they put on a pedestal a few months ago and road his coat tails to the championship game. Now they're tearing him to shreds over the media. I feel terrible for Manti.

Manti needs to talk soon. ASAP. Perhaps ND's PR suggested waiting until Saturday/Sunday so the focus will be on NFL?

Rehashing what everybody already knows. Bob Holtzman interviews a student that basically says what we all feel. Surprise and disgust at first but turning to denial and wanting to know why from Manti. He has no idea when the presser will happen says that it has to happen from agent which Pat Forde already reported about an hour ago

Manti tweeted at Ronaiah in December 2011.....

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Everyone my bro @<a href="https://twitter.com/iworship">iworship</a> got a preview of his album out on reverbnation.com/ronaiah check it out and help spread the word! #5 loves u all</p>— Manti Te'o (@MTeo_5) <a href="https://twitter.com/MTeo_5/status/144463598566113280" data-datetime="2011-12-07T17:09:40+00:00">December 7, 2011</a></blockquote>

Thanks. This really makes me sick. Here I am thinking I was going to start to enjoy the off season after Kelly announced he's coming back and now this. People will do anything to try and bring those down who are on top.

its also right before a host of USC recruits/targets take a visit to ND.

Wow there could have been much worse times to leak this. Hmm right before the USC game or maybe the NC game come to mind.

Edit: it doesn't even appear as if the leak was made by the perpetrator anyways

This has nothing to do with ND anymore. Manti Te'o is not in South Bend. He is not a Notre Dame student. He is not a Notre Dame football player. Any decision or statement he makes will be handled through his agent and his agent's firm. ND has no say in this.
