Great article. Really demonstrates how far Turner has come, just like the poster earlier in the thread stated. Brought up as a secondary player who could challenge other guys in practice to an Ohio State recruit is impressive. Like Coach Pingatore says, his best days are still ahead of him...

From the looks on that clip, he looks like he will fit in very nicely  next year.

St. Joseph's Turner proved, improved
March 29, 2007
BY PATRICK Z. MCGAVIN
Evan Turner entered his senior year at St. Joseph intending to prove he was one of the best players in the country. He started that process early. In the Chargers' first game of the year against Prospect at the St. Charles East Thanksgiving Tournament, Turner scored 31 points on 13-for-15 shooting and added 15 rebounds and two blocks.
