Before the hoax came to light, Te'o's story served as an inspiration. He had a monster senior year as a linebacker. Notre Dame went undefeated. Te'o became a Heisman Trophy finalist and the Fighting Irish's undefeated season landed them atop college football rankings and a spot in the national championship game.
Not just that, Te'o literally lost out on millions of dollars due to the catfishing controversy. Once a projected first-round selection at the 2013 NFL Draft, Te'o shockingly dropped to the second round. ATe'o was sure he'd go in the first round, so much so he had a watch party, and his agent assured him it was only a matter of where in the first round he'd end up.
"I don’t try to live my life in the what ifs because that’s gonna stress you out," he continued."That’s just gonna put you in a space where you’re not at peace with it. And that’s my thing I've been chasing, peace. For so long, and once I obtained that and once I captured it I didn't wanna go back to that. I don’t wanna go back to the chaos, so I live right where I’m at right now.
"In 2020, when Vainuku reached out to me, I was already at a place of peace," Te'o explains."I've already had those three years [since the Cam Jordan conversation in 2017] to grow. And by our conversation [Vainuku] could tell that, so he told me he was like, 'Bro, you're ready to tell it. You know you should tell it.' And I told him I didn't feel the need to. I'm good now. I'm at peace with everything.
