Cant u be stationed with the 101st right out of basic?

i leave for basic june 12, 2012 (fort benning 11x) im a DEP. i was just wondering if you can be sent to the 101st right out of basic training. I know that it is a air assault unit but i heard that some people can be sent there right outa basic and then the 101st will send them to air assault later. let me know if anyone knows any details on this. oh yeah and i do want to go to the 101st. i had a brother who was in it and i went down and visited him and like it. i would ask him but he was killed in afghanistan over a year ago.
