We ain't talking about practice—we're talking about a spring game.

Newly elected NBA Hall of Famer Allen Iverson made a special appearance at the Tennessee Volunteers' Orange and White Game at Neyland Stadium Saturday, even speaking to the team, according to head coach Butch Jones.

"Any time you can bring back a Hall of Famer to talk to your football team about playing for each other and working to be the best that you can possibly be," Jones said, via 247Sports' Ryan Callahan. "I know our players enjoyed that as well, and I'm very grateful for him coming by and spending a little bit of time with us, as well."

Iverson was in Knoxville for former Vols basketball player Bobby Maze's celebrity weekend.
