KNOXVILLE -- Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin says junior safety Eric Berry has a surprise for fans on Saturday.
Kiffin wouldn't give any specifics after the Vols' Wednesday practice. Tennessee faces Kentucky in the final regular game of the season on Saturday.
Berry, a 2008 All-American, hasn't said whether this year will be his final as a Volunteer.
He's the Southeastern Conference's all-time leader in career interception return yardage with 494 yards and needs 8 yards to surpass NCAA career leader Terrell Buckley.
Berry has spent more time playing close to the line of scrimmage and entered Saturday's game ranked second among Vols with 75 tackles.
