Im having a hard time thinking he did nothing wrong if this indeed was all his own making, even though it didnt "hurt" anyone.
The money was raised by another group to support the sad Irish fan seen on TV during the bowl game. They picked leukemia because of Manti's GF to be the charity.

Manti had nothing to do with the actually fund raiser. he didn't go around saying "oh give money to the cancer that killed my snuffaluffagus".

Let's Make Sad Irish Fan Happy Again | Indiegogo

From the the above web site:

UPDATE: Sad Irish Fan would like all supporters of the campaign to know that our goal has been, and will continue to be, to fight against leukemia & lymphoma and the terrible effects these diseases cause people every day. Recently, it has been brought to our attention that a member of the football team known to many to be negatively impacted by leukemia, may have been the victim of an elaborate hoax. While the details are still unclear and unknown to us, the Sad Irish Fan campaign will continue fighting against the disease which causes tens of thousands of deaths each year in the US alone. We thank everyone who has supported the campaign and stands with us in our mission.

Re: The Manti Te'o Dead Girlfriend Hoax Web of Lies

^ how many people did t.o. hurt? but he may certainly be considered a douche bag.

i don't think you have to hurt people in order to be a douche bag, maybe that's just me.

and that's not even touching on whether he did or did not hurt anyone

Re: The Manti Te'o Dead Girlfriend Hoax Web of Lies

I feel embarrassed for the guy. Fell in love with a person on the net without ever verifying she was legit. Naive guy to say the least, but I cringe at having to endure this press storm hitting him.

Yup it is wrong and his punishment is embarrassment on a national stage. Which is probably to harsh.
