Come on, this story's not that hard to ferret out. Dude's just gay, is all. He's in a relationship with Ronaiah Tuiasosopo (third guy in the slideshow in Nirvana's link,) who created a fake social media account with a girl's picture on it so that they could interact without word getting out.
When it becomes clear that his family plans to meet her, he knows he has to get rid of "her" somehow--but he knows he's not a good enough actor to fake crying at her supposed sudden death. But then--stroke of luck!--his grandma dies, and he realizes he can make those tears do double-duty, so he claims the girlfriend also died within 6 hours of his grandma dying. It's all about poorly hiding the fact that he's gay from his family. Nothing to do with sports or fans or anything more sinister. |

Exactly as I think CF except local reporter has the family claiming on tape/ film that they met this fake girlfriend. I think he was trying to closet himself from the great catholic ND and any draft chances that may include homo phobics. The press conference with Swarbrick ND athletic director, was bizarre to say the least so I really think the University knows now but has to have a spin Dr and he was most uncomfortable in that position.
