Manti Te'o Drama- Do You Believe Him?

University of Notre Dame Linebacker Manti Te'o is a talented athlete by all accounts. He's one of Hawaii's shining star high school athletes. He has won 8 post season awards and is the most decorated college football of all time.

So, what the heck is going on? Was the pressure and desire to win the Heisman trophy so immense that he actually faked having a girlfriend who died from leukemia to get sympathy? Wow- a lot of people are questioning whether he was duped into thinking he had a girlfriend who died--- or whether he made the whole thing up.

The more and more stories I am seeing on this- I'm thinking he's not looking too credible. Then again- they did trace this all back to a friend of his. Why would his friend do this unless he was working with Te'o? I don't know. In my best Rickie Ricardo voice I say: He's gots some splainin to do!

What do you think? Did Manti Te'o create his girlfriend or is he a victim? Vote on the poll to the right of your screen. Just one click will cast your opinion.
