Toby Gowin was the Mean Green's leading punter all four years he played from 1993 to 1996. His 92-yard punt against Vanderbilt in 1996 stands as the longest punt in school history, and his 89 punts for 3,946 yards in 1996 both are school records.
Gowin was named third team All-America following his senior season and signed as a rookie free agent with the Dallas Cowboys. He was the Cowboys punter for three seasons - averaging nearly 43 yards a punt and breaking two team rookie punting records - before signing a free agent contract with the New Orleans Saints. After three seasons with the Saints, Gowin re-signed with the Cowboys prior to the start of the 2003 season.
