  The fermion mass and mixing angle predictions of a recently proposed
framework are investigated for large b and $\tau$ Yukawa couplings. A new
allowed region of parameters is found for this large $\tan \beta$ case. The two
predictions which are substantially altered, $m_t$ and $\tan \beta$, are
displayed, including the dependence on the inputs $|V_{cb}|$, $m_c$, $m_b$ and
$\alpha_s$. A simple restriction on this framework yields an additional
prediction, for $|V_{cb}|$. If the b,t, and $\tau$ Yukawas are equal at the GUT
scale then $|\Vcb|$ is predicted and the top quark mass is constrained to lie
in the range $\mt = 179. \pm 4.$ GeV.
