January 17, 201313 yr I thought the family was planning to meet her for the first time in November? I'm so confused right now. :lol: You and me both.
January 17, 201313 yr http://articles.southbendtribune.com/2012-10-12/sports/34419536_1_brian-and-ottilia-manti-te-o-irish-head-coach "They started out as just friends," Brian Te'o said. "Every once in a while, she would travel to Hawaii, and that happened to be the time Manti was home, so he would meet with her there. But within the last year, they became a couple. I thought the family was planning to meet her for the first time in November? I'm so confused right now. :lol: Magically the link doesn't work now.
January 17, 201313 yr I'm not confused, dude lied and got caught. Te'o, his family, and friends are all on the record saying they meet her. Pretty cut and dry.
January 17, 201313 yr Magically the link doesn't work now. Teo "met" her, but not the rest of the family, right?
January 17, 201313 yr Teo "met" her, but not the rest of the family, right? Pretty sure I saw a different quote where the family said they did as well. I don't remember what article it was.
January 17, 201313 yr Pretty sure I saw a different quote where the family said they did as well. I don't remember what article it was. That might be the case. But I was thinking the Dad said they were hoping to meet their future daughter-in-law in November. This whole story is one of the craziest things I have ever seen. :lol:
January 17, 201313 yr I don't remember reading anything saying the fam met her. I read a few articles stating the dad and mom communicated with her through phone/text though.
January 17, 201313 yr Google never forgets.... What dreams may come - South Bend Tribune And Manti Te'o is convinced the beautiful stranger will be watching too Saturday, somehow. Lennay Kekua was a Stanford student and Cardinal football fan when the two exchanged glances, handshakes and phone numbers that fateful weekend three seasons ago. She was gifted in music, multi-lingual, had dreams grounded in reality and the talent to catch up to them. The plan was for Kekua to spend extensive time with the whole Te'o family when upwards of 40 of them came to South Bend in mid-November for ND's Senior Day date with Wake Forest. "They started out as just friends," Brian Te'o said. "Every once in a while, she would travel to Hawaii, and that happened to be the time Manti was home, so he would meet with her there. But within the last year, they became a couple. "And we came to the realization that she could be our daughter-in-law. Sadly, it won't happen now."
January 17, 201313 yr He didn't. He and his family admitted to meeting her years ago.his Dad did in the article I posted. That website has since pulled the article. Hummmm. I read that tweet like this, "Manti REALLY wants me to believe he'd date a girl for 3 years without meeting her?"

That doesn't say anything about the family meeting her though.
January 17, 201313 yr From the link in post #1: Brian Te'o told multiple reporters that the family had never met Kekua; the Te'os were supposed to spend time with her when they visited South Bend, Ind., for Notre Dame's Senior Day on Nov. 17. The elder Te'o told the South Bend Tribune in October, "[W]e came to the realization that she could be our daughter-in-law. Sadly, it won't happen now."
January 17, 201313 yr That doesn't say anything about the family meeting her though. Correct it doesn't. Just saying he did meet her according to the article.
January 17, 201313 yr Espn knew the story before the title game... Bet a lot of higher ups made nice money off Bama.
