“My mindset has always been to be the best corner in the nation, the best corner in the conference,” said Tigers defensive back T.J. Carter (2), seen here celebrating an interception against the Mercer Bears at the Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium on September 1, 2018. (Daily Memphian file)
The cornerback is aiming high even as he works with his third defensive coordinator at Memphis.
