didn’t, and that was wrong,” Mangum said on the podcast.

It is the first time Mangum has publicly stated she lied. When asked why, Mangum said she made up a story that wasn’t true because she “wanted validation from people and not from God.”

I think there was a 30 for 30 documentary about this already.
13515027, This just hit the news of her admitting it vocally
Posted by legsdiamond, Sat Dec-14-24 07:06 PM
at least that is the way its being reported.
13515086, Word.

The doc was definitely about how flimsy the whole thing was, but how the media ran with it anyway. I couldn't remember whether or not *she* admitted that she'd lied .. I thought she did but I'll take your word for it, I'm sure you're right.
13514981, grew up around someone that was on that team

13515095, Wonder why I can't find this post in the archives or search.

13515099, I saw those. Just shocked there is no GD post on it.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Mon Dec-16-24 12:16 PM
There had to be one because I feel like it's something I would have talked about at the time. Curious if my opinion then holds up.
