University of Tennessee

Rainey was a prominent running back for the Tennessee Volunteers of the University of Tennessee.

1913

On the 6 to 7 loss to Vanderbilt in 1913, "'Red' Rainey shone for Tennessee, though he was later relegated to the side lines after a collision with one A. Sikes, Esq., otherwise known as the "Roaring Representative from Williamson."[1] Rainey was selected All-Southern.[2]

1914

A description of the 14 to 7 victory of Sewanee in 1914 reads, "'Red Rainey' got back into the game just at the start of the third quarter, after a month's absence from scrimmage. In spite of his bum ankle, "Red" did some good work and finished the game without calling time out. Once he intercepted a forward pass and made a good return."[3]

gollark: Unfortunately, it appears that my attempt to solve the maze using an SMT solver will have to be cancelled, since it has taken several decaminutes without working after I added slightly more complex constraints to deal with an issue.
gollark: If needed.
gollark: Stuff in the container, although ubq will apparently add extra stuff.
gollark: You can probably do this via awful importlib hacks.
gollark: I'm sure you'd like to think so.
