This is an odd denial. They admit that they referred to him as adopted even
though he was conserved, they admit to conserving him to subvert NCAA
recruiting rules to get him into Mississippi, and they admit that they (the
Tuohys - husband wife and two kids) got $385K out of the Blind Side deal
while Oher only got $45K. And they can not deny that their business
benefited tremendously from all the publicity.

What they deny is that they ever adopted Oher, which is consistent with
what Oher is charging. They imply that they told the newly turned 18 yo
they were conserving him at the time - maybe they did (though maybe they
didn’t) but likely even if he would not have understood what it meant,
especially when after that they referred to it as adoption.
