New Northwestern transfer A.J. Turner is a "coach's dream," an "all-around glue guy" that will endear himself to Wildcat fans both on and off the floor.

That's according to Zack Spears, who should know what he's talking about. A basketball beat reporter for EagleAction.com and television/radio analyst for the Boston College Sports Network, Spears got a front-row seat to the 6-foot-7 wing's two years in Chestnut Hill.

Nice read, Lou. Gives some good insight into both on-the-court and off-the-court qualities. Sounds like a great kid and a welcome addition to the team.

Fantastic article, Lou! Really great input from Zack on AJ. Sounds like an amazing young man who should become an incredible member of the NU community, not to mention a very capable P5 basketball player. I won't spoil any details, but sounds a lot like a Lumpkin with an even higher ceiling. Love it!

AJ, the NU community is excited to welcome you!
