| | Former Vol Football Great Jim Cartwright Dies :: Captured Back-to-Back Jacobs Awards in 1959 and 1960 |
 | | James P. (Jim) Cartwright, a University of Tennessee blocking back from 1958-60 and two-time Jacobs Trophy winner as the SEC's best blocker (1959-60), died Monday, Dec. 1, at his home on Watts Bar Lake in the Ten Mile community of Meigs County. |
 | | Cartwright, who came to Tennessee from Athens (McMinn County), etched in his name in Tennessee history not only as a devastating blocker in the old single-wing formation, but is also remembered fondly for one significant play in the 1959 LSU game. |
 | | With Tennessee trailing 7-0 in the third quarter, Cartwright intercepted a pass, one of two he garnered that Nov. 7 day 44 years ago, and rambled 59 yards for a score down the west sideline to the north end, a theft and return which tied the game 7-7. |
