For those who don't know, Byron De'Vinner is a tPOS handler from Tennessee but he specializes in the Memphis area. He also runs a 7 on 7 football camp and has a "charity" in which he begs for donations. He was questioned last year involving the recruitment of Will Redmond(Miss St) and has been rumored to be involved with many high profile Tennessee recruits.

He posted this on his Facebook today
quote:

Dear Butch Jones Tommy Thigpen and Martinez. I don't care if you tell recruits I'm not welcomed or I've been banned from UT. Let's air the laundry out. I have been cleared by the NCAA of any wrongdoing. Let's tell theae recruits the truth you fear me. This goes back to 2011 when NO Memphis kids wanted to go to UT and it's my fault. Yes I hate UT, but wouldn't tell a kid where to or not to go. The kids can see for themselves of your track record. Martinez has been run out of Georgia Oklahoma State and Auburn now you think he can win at UT NO! You should have kept Coach Dooley at least he didn't cheat and lie to the kids. So when you want to bash someone you might want to realize I have friends around the country that listen to me and no I have norhing good to say about that place in Knoxville. Look at how many Afro American kids have signed with UT that have been dismissed. All are not bad, but the culture in Knoxville isn't good for a Afro American ? with Jayson Swain and 3 others

I think one is a prerequisite of the other.

I'm not sure, I found this on another forum. Swain hosts a radio show in Knoxville and lit into De'Vinner today so I'm assuming that's why he was tagged in the post.

So, what Memphis recruits are you going head to head against Ole Miss for right now?

He's quite the trustworthy character...Truly shocking he threw Will Redmond under the bus...

I'm sure he is if he's involved with De'Vinner. How about Petera Wilson?

Brian Kimbrow, Jovon Robinson, and Will Redmond are among several of his 7on7 players that signed with teams other than Ole Miss. If he's a handler for us, he really sucks.

Of course, we all know why Redmond $igned where he signed.

Petera Wilson is the only Memphis kid we are really recruiting this year. The rest of our in-state targets are in the mid-state.

I never said he was a handler for any specific team. He tries to steer any instate player away from UT because of his own agenda.

DeVinner got ran out of Rutherford Co a few years ago because:
1) He's a liar
2) Nobody would hire him to coach because he's a fricking joke.


I ain't mad at his fat arse trying to get some press for his company he's about to lose his sponsors for though

It must be miserable being a coach and having to pander to this kind of trash. I can't imagine how infuriating it is.

Did Swain get kicked out of UT? I went to high school with him and remember that he was a disappointment as a WR, but I didn't realize he had trouble with the coaching staff.
