The first person to answer this gets nothing but a self-pat on the back.

It's not so much of a trivia question but more I just want to know.

When was the last time Tennessee returned a Kickoff & a Punt for TD?

I'm drawing a blank on this. I'm thinking Coker & Hefeny may have been the last ones but I'm not sure.

I bring this up because I don't remember when UT was exceptional on special teams. You look at Florida on ST & they have a punt return for a TD nearly every game. Alabama with Arenas are very good at returning & so on...

Now with Eddie Gran coaching specials teams this year how well do you think we will do, & not just at returning but also with coverage?

I remember the Peerless Price return against BAMA at home?
I think it came right after a long Shaun Alexander TD run to pull the game close...

I think Bret Smith took an on-sides kick attempt to the house (Arkansas)?

The last kickoff return for a TD that I can remember was an onside kick attempt by SC. Can't remember who it was.

Probably the Willie Gault era...that's how bad we've been over the years on special teams.

Remember this?

"Ladies & Gentlemen, William Gault is going to run all the way to the state capitol!"

John Ward, UT vs. Vanderbilt (circa 1980)

Last time I remember, Leonard Scott had a KR for TD against Bama in 2002.

The last PR for TD was Donte Stallworth in 2001 vs. Vandy, to my knowledge. According to utsports.com Antonio Wardlow's block punt and recovery against GA in 2006 was counted as a PR TD.

Bret Smith returned an onside kick for a TD in 2006 I believe. I cannot remember who the last punt return for a TD was.

I say Nu'Keese in the swamp on Sept. 19, then our whole team rushes the field and does the gator chomp.

Bret Smith. I know Mark Jones ran at a punt back against Vandy. I think in 2003. Donte Stallworth also did that against the Dores in 2001. Nevermind. I see the questions were already answered.

It is a sad state of affairs when a question like this requires this much discussion.
