The problem with Fab is his ability to engage in appropriate reality checking. When he came to SU last year he thought that he would be numero uno ... afterall that's what everybody told him ... despite his limited experience with hoops at all. He was the big fish in a fairly little pond in Florida. He failed miserably. Under JB and staff's tutelage and his own efforts he has [B]started[/B] to become a force for SU. The problem will be people telling him how wonderful he would be in the NBA making the big bucks ... that his family does need. But he is entering the pros after only starting to develop the skills he needso be successful and not collect bench splinters or having to learn a new language in Europe or Asia or whereever. I won't say he couldn't be successful and if he decides to go I do wish him well. But he has so much more to learn and skills to develop to be really a successful pro. I am sure that JB will counsel him well.
 
As far as Dion goes he has the skills and the IQ. JB has all but said that Dion is ready ... that there is nothing else that he can learn. Selfishly I hope his Aunt and Momma have a nice fireside chat with him and convince him to stay in school.
