Michigan's Fab 5 Documentary
Should be an interesting documentary of the greatest NCAA basketball recruiting class of all time, "The Fab Five". The 1991 University of Michigan recruitment class of Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Jimmy King and Ray Jackson changed not only basketball at the NCAA level but also ushered in a new hip hop swagger and style into the sports landscape. The team reached the 1992 and 1993 NCAA Championship games as both freshmen and sophomores, while starting a combined 304 of a possible 350 games.
What would follow was the largest scandal to hit the University of Michigan athletic department ever as well as cast a dark cloud over the basketball program for years to come.
