About JUT
JUT means to stick out or project, like a jutting chin or a cliff; its forms include JUTTED, JUTTING and JUTS. JUT plays the J with a U and a T, a handy way to use an awkward U. JUTE, the plant fiber, adds an E and is valid too.

JUT scores 10 points
Before any bonus squares: J 8 + U 1 + T 1 = 10. On a double-word square that's 20, on a triple-word 30, and every letter bonus under one of these tiles is applied first.
Example: JUT as the first play
Later in the game, put the J on a 3L square and JUT is worth 26 before any word bonus.
