Offseason Q&A with Alabama A&M men's hoops coach Willie Hayes

NORMAL, Alabama  --  Why are you excited about having the two guys you signed (Shelton State Community College's Ladarius Tabb and Central Park Christian's Xavier Williams) in and what you're looking forward to working with them on?

Hayes: "Well with Xavier Williams, you're talking about a 6-8, 6-9 young guy that can post and also can face up and that's very athletic and that can get up and down the floor. You put him along with Justan Banks. You got big Jerome Hunter returning this year that sat out last year, along with Nicholas West and (Demarquelle) Tabb, that's going to be pretty good for us."

With Ladarius Tabb, you're talking about a very athletic guy. Can play two or three positions. He's one of them guys that can you give you a double-double from that wing spot."

Did you feel like you needed to add some size with a guy that can play in the backcourt as well?
