Competition is fueling Kentucky's cornerbacks: "We all have the same goal"

Kentucky’s cornerback room is deep, but loaded with youth. Andru Phillips is the oldest of the bunch as a redshirt junior, having played in all 13 games (including four starts) a season ago and 26 total as a Wildcat. Everyone else has seen limited action on the field during their short college playing careers. That’s not necessarily a bad thing though.

Phillips is all but locked into one of the two starting roles — he has the most experience under Brad White’s defense and has flashed plenty of potential. But it gets tricky from there.
