The fermion mass and mixing angle predictions of a recently proposed f
ramework are investigated for large b and tau Yukawa couplings. A new
allowed region of parameters is found for this large tanbeta case. The
two predictions that are substantially altered, m(t) and tanbeta, are
displayed, including the dependence on the input \V(cb)\, m(c), m(b),
and alpha(s). A simple restriction on this framework yields an additi
onal prediction for \V(cb)\. If the b, t, and tau Yukawa couplings are
equal at the GUT scale then \V(cb)\ is predicted and the top quark ma
ss is constrained to lie in the range m(t) = 179+/-4 GeV.
