Mass accretion onto main sequence stars in Algol systems must take place in a shear-dominated boundary layer. This study shows that many of the gross observational properties of these systems can be understood to arise from such regions, in which turbulent coupling to the underlying star is important. Specific systems are discussed, and comparison is also made to previous numerical hydrodynamic simulations.
