Jarvis Jones was a better LB overall.

 

Te'o wasn't even the best defensive player on his own team.

 

Jarvis Jones plays a completely different position. He is a pass rush linebacker/DE.

 

 

He was the best defensive player on his team, although Stephon Tuitt was a close second.

Her account existed long before Te'o.

 

I have no clue. All Im saying is if I was Deadspin id have been a little bit more cautious.

 

Id have run the article, but Id have led with a disclaimer that its based upon research and opinion, and that other evidence may arise to vindicate Te'o but at this moment with the information we have this is our conclusion.

ND saying Teo was hoaxed, that he was the victim. Victim of what?!? Believing he had a GF who isn't real! Hoaxed into believing that she went to Hawaii to visit him when in fact she didn't exist??!!,

 

Well this could get tricky.

 

Theoretically some guy (that Tuissopopo) could have paid a girl to go visit Te'o etc as some sort of long con for money. Its pretty absurd, but so is the entire story.

So basically, ND has confirmed that the person didn't actually exist.

It looks like they are going to try to say that some random girl told Teo she was kekua and dated him, and then faked her own death

Then unless the person Te'o supposedly met is a dead-ringer for the person in those photos, wouldn't someone have figured out something when the evening news started showing photos of a different person than the one he purportedly met? Unless that person whose photos were being used...was lying to deadspin.

Im thinking they are going to say that someone paid this girl to do it in an attempt to get money from Te'o.

 

Sounds like even deadspin thought that Ronaiah Tuiasosopo was behind it, and that he had done this before.
