How many of you predicted 11-time NBA All-Star Allen Iverson would be making an appearance at the Orange and White spring game?
And if you did, could you please tell us… why?
Iverson, who went to college at Georgetown, was at Neyland Stadium on Saturday to enjoy the Vols spring game.

Vols beat writer Matt Slovin tweeted a picture from the Vols snapchat that led him to believe that Iverson was in Knoxville to speak with the team at halftime:

No word on whether his speech included any material about how spring games are just “practice.”
