The next season was when Turner established himself as one of the most dangerous receiving threats in the FCS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 6-foot-2, 180-pounder hauled in 78 receptions for 963 yards and seven touchdowns. Turner came up big in a thrilling 45-44 first-round playoff win against Villanova, going for 173 yards and two TDs off of 11 catches. His second TD was the game-winner with 2:56 remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TouchdownTuesday?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TouchdownTuesday<\/a> looks back at CJ Turner\u2019s game-winning score in the playoff victory over Villanova &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LionUpFootball?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LionUpFootball<\/a> opens the 2020 season at Tulane on Sept. 3 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LionUp?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LionUp<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MfZo3ZQ2zE\">pic.twitter.com\/MfZo3ZQ2zE<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Southeastern Football (@LionUpFootball) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LionUpFootball\/status\/1262860216581926913?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 19, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In a shortened 2021 spring season, Turner played in six games. He averaged nearly 100 receiving yards per contest, catching 44 balls for 534 yards and five touchdowns. Turner was named to the All-Southland Conference First Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quarterback Cole Kelley plans to return for the upcoming fall season after winning the Walter Payton Award for the best offensive player in the FCS. The Lions averaged 39.5 points per game and had the No. 2 passing offense with 391.9 yards per game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the offense is conducive to big stats, Turner has the talent to match his huge numbers.
