The Knoxville Legacy

Our Hometown

In Eastern Tennessee, the color orange never goes out of style. Here there  is a rich history of family, faith and football. One particular family holds a place of honor in Volunteer history. To the Colquitt family, punting is as natural as breathing. Known in the region as the First Family of the Fourth Down, these three men share amongst themselves, four Super Bowl rings. Father, Craig and his two sons, Dustin and Britton, all three began their careers on the UT playing field and went on to success in the NFL. These days Craig, a lifelong Tennessee resident spends his time with a paintbrush in hand. His subjects range from the beauty of his natural surroundings to expressive personal portraits.

Craig is offering a limited edition print of one of Tennessee's most beloved icons, the University of Tennessee mascot, "Smoky." The image is very special, not only because of the strong ties of the artist to the University of Tennessee, but also because it's filled with iconic UT imagery, making it the perfect addition to the UT football lover's collection.

Little River Art has created an archival, memorable print of Craig's original painting. The painting itself is signed by all three Colquitt players, and each print is hand-signed and numbered by Craig himself.

The Tennessee Fund

Craig has allocated a generous portion of proceeds from the sale of this print to The Tennessee Fund. Crucial to the upkeep and operation of the UT Athletics program, The Tennessee Fund directly benefits student athletes through scholarships.
