From the Huffington Post

The bombshell exposed Wednesday byDeadspin reporters rocked the sporting world with revelations of an elaborate hoax involving Notre Dame star linebacker Manti Te'o and the tragic passing of his girlfriend, Lennay Kekua. As Deadspin revealed, she never existed. In the aftermath, Te'o has claimed he was the victim of a hoax, but the bizarre tale has led some to wonder if Te'o was attempting to hide a different secret--his sexuality.

9 baffling questions. This one I hadn't thought of.

8. Carrying out the hoax would have been a full-time job involving more than one person. Te'o claims he would spend all night on the phone with Kekua while she was in the hospital. There were purported communications from family members. Who would have had the time to orchestrate it? By the same token, how would Te'o have been able to create and maintain a social-media profile for Kekua on his own?

ESPN, CBS, ABC, and all the notre dame officials as well as the hiesman voting comitee. Seems like he had plenty of believers to me. Watch the on-field interviews after the mich st game. This kid is a top gun actor in my book!

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant that more people would believe him with the story he's telling now,

I hadn't heard of this...

5. After he supposedly received the shock of his life -- a call from someone using Kekua's voice and phone number while he was at the ESPN Awards on Dec. 6 -- Teo stayed quiet for three weeks. It wasn't until Dec. 26 that he told Notre Dame officials, who then hired private investigators to look into it.

The hell? :blink:
