Nate Tabor - G/F - Waterbury, CT

Welcome to St. John’s!

Checked out some of his highlights. Kid looks like a stud lead guard. 6'5, big, strong, athletic. Great get!

Perhaps a January verbal I sense

Paultz is good. What else do you see in your crystal ball?

Looks like a tremendous get! Nothing like a power guard in my book. Kudos to staff for putting in the work.

This is great news. I think we're starting to finally turn the corner and are on the way to becoming a consistently good team year in and year out again. If we can consistently land top 100 freshman and talented transfers we'll have a recipe for success and longevity.

I also read that article on 247 about him committing, and I like how he says how Queens is home. Hopefully he turns out to be the next hometown hero a la Ponds. You know when he puts on that jersey he's going to represent.

I am so excited about this commitment. This really shows how far we have come as a program. Was really nervous when we were striking out on our 2018 and 2019 targets but wow. Getting Cam mack, Ian Steere, and now Nate Tabor for 2020. This really is starting to show that we are starting to build a program that can win year in year out with a combo of transfers and highly regarded freshman. I hope the play on the floor and these other commitments will help us get precious and kuminga.

wow big get

He's a good one.  Great job by staff!

I'm very happy with the addition. This is the kind of 4 year player you build around.

I love the Rens connection too. You could feel that brewing for a year now.

Me thinks Ponds and Heron will have much bigger influences on the program than what they do on the court.

for the first time, in maybe 25 years, do I feel like this program is finally, FINALLY, heading in the right direction.  There is a long-term strategy for recruiting; an identity for the style of play; an AD with solid credentials; a school president that believes in the power of basketball; and NO DRAMA!

we've always looked at Nova, Xavier, Gonzaga, as schools we should emulate.  And it looks like we're heading down that path.  Solid 3 & 4 star players.  Bigs.  Out of state recruits.  Sprinkling in some decent NYC talent.

Future looks bright!

I believe Tabor is kin to Heron.   

I don't think anyone is committing here until they have a clear vision for the coaching staff. Wayy too much uncertainty which will work against any school trying to land top kids.

I believe Tabor is kin to Heron.   

As per the Zags article when he committed, "Tabor has lived with the father of St. John’s junior guard Mustapha Heron since he was in the seventh grade."
