Tennessee and new head coach Rick Barnes desperately needed a point guard for the 2015-16 season, so the program quickly targeted reclassified point guard Lamonte Turner during the April evaluation period. The aggressive recruitment led to a commitment from Turner, but the incoming freshman lead guard has not enrolled at Tennessee yet and could be awaiting an academic matter, according to a report from Ben Frederickson of the Knoxville News-Sentinel.
A Tennessee spokesman confirmed to Frederickson that Turner is targeting an August enrollment instead of getting into campus this week as the school could be awaiting a final grade to post.
