Ricky DeBerry is no stranger to Tennessee having visited several times since his sophomore season, with his most recent visit coming this past summer. DeBerry has already officially visited Oklahoma and has visits scheduled for Texas A&M and Michigan State. Penn State, Virginia and Virginia Tech are all still very much in the mix as well. DeBerry has been rather quiet about his recruitment but Tennessee is a legitimate option and his family have always been very fond of the versatile linebacker/defensive end position the Vols are recruiting him at. It will be interesting to see what DeBerry has to say coming out of the visit as the Vols have long been thought of one of just a handful of schools that are a real threat to land him.
Your screen name makes the post u bumped funnier
I know Shannon personally and he told me that he wanted to be a vol but "not getting a Tennessee offer pissed him off"As does the fact that he lied and pretended to be a college basketball player at one point in time. And he didn't learn his lesson either, because at another point, claimed to be friends with and was texting with a high-profile college basketball recruit who was committed to Alabama (Shannon Hale) and was going to flip to Tennessee. That lie actually grew viral to the point where Hale's father had to actually deny the allegations publicly.

Exact words.
Hale's father said UT had not contacted them in months when the rumor went viral. However, I know dooleydiesel, and I can say he does know Shannon Hale. After that, I can't tell you if Shannon really told him any of that stuff or not. This is basketball conversation in a football thread. So let's just get back to DeBerry.You'll have to forgive me, but I'm gonna take "I know Shannon" posts with a grain of salt after the terrific troll job by dooleydiesel. Having said that, I'm almost positive that Hale had a UT offer from not one, but two different UT staffs (Pearl and Martin). Rivals and Scout listed him with a UT offer.
Furthermore, he committed to Alabama as a sophomore, so if he wanted a UT offer so badly (assuming he didn't actually have one), why commit so early? Pearl was making him a priority early and he committed to Bama out of the blue as a sophomore.
