ATLANTA -- There isn’t a football coach alive who wouldn’t drool at seeing Desmond King, Delano Hill, Khalid Hill, Jourdan Lewis, and Malik McDowell on the field at the same time.

King is a junior cornerback at the University of Iowa, where he was named First Team All-Big Ten Conference and received the Tatum-Woodson Award as the league’s top defensive back.
