Kentucky assistant K.T. Turner has made nine different stops across 17 years as a coach, ten now including his move to Lexington. Leading up to this point, though, no stop was more important than his time at SMU, where he spent three seasons as an assistant and four as an associate head coach.
It was at SMU where he learned under Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown for three seasons, his first three in Dallas. He made stops at Wichita State (2012-13), Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (2011-12), Hutchinson Community College (2009-11), Cowley College (2008-09), Redlands Community College (2006-07) and Panola Community College (2005-06), but that’s when he was laying the foundation of his journey, working his way up the coaching ladder.
