Never mind. See my other comments in post 5I haven't seen anything about the AP SEC 6th man of the year with all of the news this morning? Would think Bowden/Turner would at least be considered. Or is 6th man of the year only voted on by the coaches?
Bowden started the first 5 games, then hasn't since, so he qualifies more than anyone.
His stats are 10.5 pts, 3.4 reb, 2.2 ast, which is good for 4th best scoring on the team. I take back my previous comments, he's a candidate.
Turner started the last 13 games, so he technically shouldn't be considered.
No offense to Turner, but he thrived last year, where he seemingly got to "get a flow of the game" and come in with the 3's. Maybe him sitting to come in as 6th man would help with what Barnes noted as him pressing. Going to need him big time if we're going to do some damage in the tourney.Bowden started the first 5 games, then hasn't since, so he qualifies more than anyone.

I don’t really think turner or Bowden should be considered. They just both have really hovered between being good players and being liabilities when they’re out there. Especially Bowden. It’s hard to understand how a guy that explosive and athletic can disappear for such long periods of time. Bowden played some amazing minutes in the first Florida game and, you could argue, was the reason we pulled ahead for good. He had about a 5 minute stretch where he was amazing. But that’s really the only great stretch I can remember this year involving him. Most of time he’ll take one I’ll advised shot for every good play he makes. Against au he bricked a wide open 3 with about 2 minutes remaining and then lost the handle and turned the ball over our second to last possession of the game. That game kinda summarizes his season to me. Just no consistency.
He was great in the first half and a liability in the second half.

He had 16 and 6 against Auburn. You have a selective memory.I don’t really think turner or Bowden should be considered.

The first Florida game was the last stretch of 5 minutes you remember Bowden being good??
Dang your memory sucks if that's what you are saying because the last game we played he was great
My memory? He missed a 3 and turned the ball over on 2 of our last 4 possessions (in the last game). Yes he did hit a few shots early in the game. Which was almost surprising considering how poorly he’d been shooting the ball most if the year.
He’s a talented player. But he’s not been consistently good for the last 2 months. And all said anyway was that he shout be considered for 6th man. Which he wasn’t...
If you are going to cherry pick single "bad plays" late In games I am sure your wonderful memory will recall the shot against ole miss that without it we lose that game.
