So, one day, current college student Ryan Jones will have a crazy story to tell his grandkids. He's the guy who was responsible for snapping shots of Manti Te'oduring his interview with ESPN late Friday night. And, to hear him tell it, he essentially went from washing his dishes at his apartment to packing up all of his equipment to photograph Te'o within a matter of minutes on Friday.
