whatever ?
if he can play ball, he'll still get drafted. This is already boring.
And this story continues to reek even more. The AP went back through all there interviews, stories, etc over the last year. Te'o was continuing to talk up the dead girlfriend angle on December 8th and 11th, when Notre Dame is nowing saying he first "discovered" the whole girlfriend/girlfriend dying of leukemia was false on December 6th. So why the hell did he continue to tell a story that he now knew was a lie, and continue to perpetuate the lie, in interviews two and five days after he supposedly found out this chick never actually existed and never died of leukemia? This is starting to stink more and more with every passing hour.
Teammates knew about it and say they knew he was involved.

The dude abides.
Ten years ago, before Skype, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, smartphones, etc, etc, back when AIM ruled the land, it was easy to get duped. Today ... much harder.
On the other hand, there is a documentary and entire TV series (Catfish) based around this whole concept. So obviously it's still very, very easy to get duped. And anybody who says otherwise is, while very smart and obviously wouldn't get duped themselves, kidding themselves about how smart and logical everyone else is.

That's a far cry from "knew he was involved". ESPN has a similar article saying that he played it up, but does not say that players knew that she was a fake, or believed he did.
"At all" is a stretch. That story was talked about quite a bit, actually, leading up to the National Championship game. And now it's being talked about again. ESPN isn't running it as a main story, of course, but it is getting talked about.
The simply reality is that our country is more fascinated by gossip and innuendo (see: TMZ) than crime and justice ... unless it's on Law & Order.

There was this thing that happened at PSU not so long ago that begs to differ, see there just isn't a eye catching name to tie into the story at Notre Dame.
These crimes are equally has horrendous as the acts at PSU yet I haven't seen even a hint of a mention on my local news about this. Can you say the same is true about the Jerry Sandusky crimes? I bet not, not even close. Something is getting covered up and it's just not these crimes and it's a shame.
Well, one of the exceptions is anything involving children, naturally. Though that story had a healthy amount of water-cooler gossip too. And it's not a rule by any means, just an over-generalization on my part.
Are you saying you're surprised you haven't seen anything about Lizzy Seeberg on your local news? I'm not. Among other reasons, it's a two year old story that's just getting brought up again.

Scott Fujita said he didn't know how Manti Te'o was before this story...as difficult as I find that hard to believe
It could be said people didn't know who Scott Fujita was until the Bounty story broke.
Are you comparing rape penis size?
That's funny as much as joking about being raped can be anyway.
