Somebody Took Over Manti Te'o's Old Twitter Account And Is Reviving His Old Tweets—Including Those To Lennay Kekua
Just when we thought things on the Manti Te'o/Lennay Kekua front were over, they got weird again.

After an unimpressive time at the NFL combine, Manti Te'o gave the 40-yard-dash another shot at Notre Dame's pro day in South Bend. And true to his word, Te'o beat his old mark by about a tenth of a second. Fast? Faster, at least....

When Cops Are Trying To Accost Opposing Basketball Players In The Middle Of A Game, You Know Something Crazy Went Down
Last night's St. John's-Notre Dame bout at The Bra was an easy win for the 24th-ranked Irish, but it came at a cost: a Senior Night scuffle between ND's Cameron Biedscheid and SJU swingman Sir'Dominic Pointer resulted in both being ejected for fighting and a mandatory one-game suspension.

Remember when Manti Te'o was boring?

Report: Female Tuiasosopo Cousin Involved In Te'o Hoax
Two recent developments have been hard to reconcile with each other. First, Ronaiah Tuiasosopo's claim to the Daily News that, in leading on Manti Te'o, it was him on the phone the entire time, impersonating a female voice.
