Every year they’ve been different.

Whether you’re talking John Wall, Brandon Knight or Marquis Teague, all of John Calipari’s Kentucky guards have brought a little something different to the table. In that respect, whoever plays point guard for UK this year – Ryan Harrow or Archie Goodwin – will be no different.

But the biggest difference this season, perhaps the thing that stood out the most during Kentucky’s 93-61 season-opening exhibition win over Northwood on Thursday, is that it might not be just one-man point guard show this season.
