I wonder if Kent will get some PT against Tennessee Tech.
This whole thing with Turner is starting to seem fishy to me. Is there more to the story than just being injured?
According to the last 2-3 open practices Grant Ramey and Rob Lewis have both stated Turner was a full participant in practices..so they were surprised when he didn’t play the last game.I wish we weren't left to interpret CRB's comments about Turner's availability being up to when Lamonte decides he's ready to play.
I'd also like to know what Turner does during practices. Is he doing any of the conditioning work? Does he practice free throws? I wouldn't think he's doing very much since he's sitting out the pre-game warm ups.
Almost equally mysterious is Zach Kent's status.

Interesting. Maybe just precautionary. If so I don’t see any point in playing him against TN Tech. Maybe ease him back in against UGAAccording to the last 2-3 open practices Grant Ramey and Rob Lewis have both stated Turner was a full participant in practices..so they were surprised when he didn’t play the last game.

Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing CRB's intentions on the above. It sounds to me as if having a very good version of Turner is out-of-the-question for the rest of the season. My hope is that Johnson will become a dagger in the hearts of the SEC in the coming weeks.I wish we weren't left to interpret CRB's comments about Turner's availability being up to when Lamonte decides he's ready to play.

Yes they just played their best game of the year with a win over Georgia Tech. Georgia is not a good basketball team. And we shouldn’t need Turner to be at full strength - or even play - to win.Georgia is actually an improving team and they are at home. They led top 25 Arizona the entire game and lost at the end and won by the same margin we did against Georgia Tech on the road.
