Fifth grade teacher by day and DJ by night, Casey will rap for anyone on request. Funny, outgoing and intelligent, this teacher is most proud of having a career where he has taught at schools located in low-income areas for more than 15 years. He takes great joy in knowing that he has the opportunity to work with good kids who are not growing up in ideal situations. Casey calls his wife "terrific" if for no other reason than she puts up with him. An understanding woman, she will miss him during his stay in the house, but she realizes that this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for Casey. He feels the most difficult part about being in the house will be being away from his family, and he is worried about the milestones he might miss in the lives of his 19-year-old and nine month-old sons. With the BIG BROTHER cameras surrounding him at all times, he is quite nervous about his nose-picking habit. He's pretty sure that the cameras will eventually catch him. Other than that, he really doesn't have any fears and quips that there are only two things that he is afraid of: his "wife and the IRS." He is looking forward to getting outside of his comfort zone which will end up in self-discovery, adventures and awesome experiences. One of his life's mottos is, "refuse to lose," and if he encounters any whiny people in the house, he will simply say, "life isn’t fair. We’ve all had tough times. Suck it up and move on." Casey's birth date is February 16, 1968.

I hope his breaking out into rap is kept very limited ....it was bad enough when Boogie did it years ago.....that train has left the station. I pride myself in not being eastly gossed out but picking of noses sends me inoo heav mode.

Just saw him in a short video on twitter. He alone could totally keep me away from watching this year. And what is with that necklace he's wearing in his bio pic? (Not to mention the earrings and rapping.) Dang! He's just, as Braden says, "too cool for school".

This must be the 'Gerry'. Wasn't Gerry a teacher also? I've only read about Laura and Casey so far, and found a match for each!

I just read a story about him in the St.Petersburg Times and his wife says they are psycho fans of Big Brother. He is from St.Petersburg Florida.

"According to the Associated Press, Turner calls himself a "hip-hop redneck" Guess that explains the big, faux-silver chain he's wearing around his neck. (Wonder if it turns his neck green?) Is there anything sadder than a self-proclaimed hip-hop redneck except maybe one who's teaching 5th grade kids. God save us!

Big Time Big Brother fans usually do not make it very far in the house...I hope this time is different...I would like to see how a real fan makes out. He has echo's of Dan(winner), Mike (left first his season was a big fan) and of course Robert (4)the nose picker.

Casey's pic reminds me of my sons 7th grade math/science teacher (one of the more popular teachers in school,) right down to the earrings and chain, lol. I had to look twice at his pic and while looking, Caleb walked by and asked, Hey mom, is that Mr. B? Oh no, its not, but looks just like him!

There are lots of Big Time Big Brother Fans in the house this year. Something has been mentioned about both Ronnie and Michelle being able to name all contestants, challenge winners, evictions, etc from BB1 on. If they really are Big Time Fans, this just might be a very interesting game.

If he wins, he should get hairplugs. The sideways baseball cap takes years off him!

Imagine all the impressionable young minds that have come to believe that nose-picking is an acceptable habit! I am hoping all rapping is saved for BBAD! Which I don't have -

I saw his picture and thought "token old guy". Then I scrolled down and saw that he was born in 1968. SO WAS I! Dang.

I think he sounds like he's got a sense of humor. I bet his students love him. He's probably a terrible rapper, but I doubt he takes himself seriously.

He's like, Gerry Meets Adam Meets Boogie. Two of which are winners that were also... less than stellar housemates. >_> I dunno. I'm kind of neutral on him at the moment, but if he tries to rap too often I won't be able to help but be annoyed by him. I think he'll try to act too young though and will reject being the "old guy" this season.

He seems to be one of those polarizing people- if he tries to play to the cameras, he won't be long for the house. PRE-JURY, maybe EARLY JURY...
