0 a great football player but the story that goes with it. to me, they let that get away from them. i was very surprised. this story broke around 8:00 p.m. last night. inight. i'm there and see the director of athletics is going to do a press conference. i read it again today and i'm like i can't believe he did this. twtwo hours later. as a spokesperson not a good idea to do something that immediate. you need to tease up the story. there are so many layers to this, that greg had a good idea. we have a cast of characters here to try to sort it out. the p.r. people let it get ahead of him and shouldn't. >> kimberly: there are numbers, and the investigators in notre dame, dep rekahns running around, take nothing question. why didn't they take it to the police if they thought he was victim of a hoax? why not get the police involved and let them contact the perpetrators. >> greg: please, please, kimberly, stop. who hasn't fabricated a sick girlfriend to win the heisman trophy? some people will create elaborate dog calendars to prove they have a dog when you know it doesn't exist. the weird thing about this, he is a star football player, destined for a big career. he doesn't have to make up a girlfriend. that's what a soccer player does. it leads back to the brady bunch. who forget the george glass episode when jan brady wanted attention of her friends and family she contacted a fake boyfriend, george glass. her parents decided to throw her a surprise birthday party and invite george glass. guess who doesn't show up? george glass, he doesn't exist. moral of story if you make up a fake girlfriend make it katie holmes. >> eric: all right. you went there. so why in your opinion would he make up a fake girlfriend? >> kimberly: what about the father? is he complicit in this? brian? he said, the direct quote, every once in a while he will travel to hawaii, that is the time that manti was home so he would meet with her there. >> greg: what about hawaii? >> eric: two issues. why didn't notre dame assuming they had investigators like the gentleman says they did, why didn't they complain? why did they wait when they knew more than a month before the national title game -- >> kimberly: distracting from -- >> dana: good question. such a great question. >> bob: i agree. to stand out there and say this and the overwhelming amount of evidence is against you. they may have said hoax some place. clearly the woman whose picture taken and shocked by it, the hoax is somebody lifted her picture. every time a good looking girl on campus, i used to say i had a date with her. >> kimberly: one of his close friends tuisosopo. >> eric: nice. >> bob: you're from hawaii? you're from puerto rico, right? >> bob: is this real, snob what is wrong with you. >> dana: what was your point? what did he say? >> kimberly: my point is he went to high school with the girl whose picture was used. there is a web of characters involved in this. somebody pulled the picture, put it up. buddy, it's skype season. get up and put the girl on skype, talk to her and meet with her. >> eric: a quirky, ange to this is there a girl, i'm not sure that is her, or not her name but a girl from social media someone lifted and made that his girlfriend. >> greg: who habit done that? >> eric: there are talking heads on tv now saying this is terrible, no team will take him. i go out on a limb and say if i was going to draft him in the first round -- >> bob: two or three. >> eric: draft him anyway. >> bob: absolutely. the old man -- heisman trophy gets you money and endorsements yufe get out. that was probably part of it. in terms of a ball player, he's unbelievable. >> eric: great. there is not an n.f.l. owner not trying to get this guy. >> kimberly: maybe this -- they have his back because they support him and huge future and big star and one of the best things to happen to notre dame in a long time. he could have gone pro early and he stayed to be with the team, which is impressive. you the grandmother and the mom. the dad and brother. everybody is involved in this. >> dana: everybody is involved in this. i wonder at what point does he go to oprah and make a public apology and we can say we feel bad for him. >> bob: i will go out on a limb with you. i don't think second or third. first round for sure he is going. >> eric: slated to go on the first round. >> dana: probably end up on "saturday night live" to make fun of himself. >> bob: what is skype? >> kimberly: oh, please. you get in trouble. face to face people. >> eric: do you remember when tim tebow took a knee and did this? have you seen what this is? the new one. taoing. right here. look. >> kimberly: the fake girlfriend. we've now climbed to higher journalistic standards here. coming up, president obama's inauguration is on monday. does he believe in the constitution he will swear to defend? >> bob: who wrote that? are you kidding me? >> kimberly: we think he has issues with the second amendment. you'll hear from him next on "the five." with the spark miles card from capital one, thor gets great rewards for his small business! your boa!
