After watching more flim on this guy, I want him badly. He is so skilled and athletic, it would help our team enormously.

I have been one of traes biggest fans and supporters, but this is the type of PG that if you can land you move trae to the 2 without thinking twice. Adding Fabyon to your lineup makes you a much better team immediately.

This lineup is filthy:

Fabyon JR./Golden
Golden JR/Mcbee SR.
McRae. JR/Edwards JR.
Stokes. SO/Maymon
Maymon SR/Hall SR.

Golden is the point guard. Doesn't matter is Harris comes here.

I think Martin's plan is to have Golden play 30 minutes and either A) Develop Richardson in the backup role. B) Washpun takes the backup spot. C) Has Stanton be the backup.

Don't think we'll take another PG unless Washpun AND someone else leaves. JMO.

Why would CCM have offered then?

I think CCM sees him as that elite Chris jones type that immediately makes us better.

So if Fabyon signs here you still see golden playing 30 minutes at PG?

Don't know. I'm not sure how good Faybon is.

I'm just saying if it came down to say, Harris or Nolan, I think he takes Nolan unless someone else leaves. We technically have zero schollies open.

I could see that.

Fabyon is good, like real good. You don't get offers from Kansas and Ohio state being a mid major type of guy.

He is Chris jones 2.0, maybe not quite as good, but very similar.

I still think atleast 2 out of miller, Wes, Reese, chievous and yemi aren't here next year.( I think yemi will be here)if I had to bet on it I'd say miller and Wes aren't here, and I think there's a chance Reese goes prep school. Atleast that's what I'm hoping after seeing his senior numbers!

It's hard.

Our post could be very empty after next year. Hall, maymon and stokes could all leave, just leaving yemi in the post.

I think it's a good idea to bring in a post guy.

At the same time hard to pass on someone of fabyons talent level.

Me too. We are fine in the post, but our guard play could use some more help.

Not if Kenny is gone.

If he isn't, then it's not as bad.

Imagine getting Nolan AND Kenny stays. Might be the best post in the SEC.

Riight but I think maybe we should take a shot for a big run in 2012-2013. Instead of keeping stocked up, but in the end its Cuonzo's choice and I'm sure he will make the right one.

It's the after 2012 post that scares me...

Who will you have at the 4/5....yemi that's it most likely.

Yes. I want a big man with potential that can fill right in as a sophomore.

We are going to lose Jeronne, Kenny, and Dwight. Most likely Jarnell goes pro. You lose your top three posts.

So, you now have to get three posts MINIMUM for 2013-2014.

It's why I wanted Mitchell so much. But we can really use Nolan.

I think regardless we need a post this class.

You can't end 2012 with ONE post player.

That means you have to sign atleast 2 pot guys and hope that they can come in and contribute.

That's a big risk.

I think well have 2 scholarships available in addition this year. Fab and Nolan would be perfect.

However if you take one, I'd take Nolan. We need some future depth in the post. Then again if stokes stays for '13 problem solved.

Exactly. The 13' class is too good to have to use 3 scholarships on post guys IMO.

As I said though I fully expect atleast 2 scholarships to open up, so of both fab and Nolan want to come here we will make room IMO.

I guess I just don't know why Stokes would stay another year. Unless he just LOVES UT or college in general. This could happen, but those dollar signs really speak volumes. There aren't a ton of Peyton Manning's out there anymore who want to turn down the pros and play in college. I know these are football references, and thus not completely applicable, but I think Eric Berry is a good example. He was all Vol, but the chance for a big draft payout is a whole lot to turn down.

Why did Terrence jones return to uk, or sullinger and Barnes to their schools?

It does happen.

Not saying I think it will, but there's always that chance.

It's a valid point. Sometimes we all get surprised, but I still assert that it's pretty rare these days.

Edit: He does seem to love UT though, and that's an inspiring and hopeful plus in our favor.

As I said I don't think he does stay that was my whole original point.

We need a post in this signing class.

Nah, we're definitely on the same page here. I would love for him to stay as much as the next guy, but I'll be happily shocked if it happens.

I agree that we could definitely use Nolan in this class. He would be a huge get.

That said, if we have two spots, Fabyon would be a great point man for us.

We'll see I suppose. I'm confident in CCM, and I think he will be able to sell our surprising successes from this season to just about anyone.

This is a nice development. I wonder if Kansas really offered him? I wouldn't think they would go the JUCO route for PG, or any player for that matter. No clue what's going to happen here, but thanks for the new info.

That's the same question I had. The kid says he likes all those schools, but I can't find anything that says he's been offered by all of them. Anyway, it couldn't hurt to pick up someone that could help at the guard spot. I just wouldn't put my hopes in a kid that comes in via Juco as being someone that would immediately be able to lead your team. At this point in the process, Golden is our man unless we pick up an unbelievable talent at the position. Golden's experience would be too tough for an incoming player to overcome in just one year.
