They made me go pull out my nerf rim & play ball on my bedroom door.Saying aloud to myself I'm Jalen or I'm Chris as I played.LOL!!! No matter what happen w/ the violations, the fab five will always be remembered, they made a mark in history,& that is what you call greatness! No one could ever erase all the memories they gave their fans from those spectacular times.!!! FAB FIVE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!

Ill never forget I walked in Wolf Sporting Goods in Rockville Centre NY. They had the uniforms I was on a mission to get one. I walked in the park with it on one day with the Barkleys & black socks. Mannnnn I was lit that day! They literally changed basketball for real! I'm still a UM fan til this day.

    It’s interesting when I watch the Fab 5 in my later years. Never knew any of them personally yet played against 2 of them. J-Rose (AND Voshon Lenard) played with Southwestern and no words can truly express how good they were in high school. Chris played for a smaller (private) school that we played during the summer time. Miss those days and I miss that Michigan squad.

I felt that was one of the main reasons it never achieved a National championship" WOW!!!! That's some wise ass INSIGHT right there! Not for nothing, The Fab 5 Was all Freshman when they lost to Duke, who were juniors and seniors. And I will forever represent for them.

    @Gyro911 Now hold on Gyro. UNLV will go down as one of the greatest college basketball teams of all time but they didn't have a cultural impact like the Michigan Fab Five. Perhaps the greatest college basketball recruiting class ever. It wasn't just about baggy shorts and black socks. These dudes changed college basketball in one year. They got beat by good teams and showed there youth. But the fact that 5 freshman could lead a major university to the NCAA championship game twice is unheard of.

    They went to the title game 2 years in a row 1992 and 1993, didn't happen since then until Florida in 2006 and 2007. Then they went to the Elite 8 in 1994 without Webber. Every one of those guys would have probably stayed there until they won a title if it wasn't for Webber trying to forget his mistake and going to the NBA. He was the #1 pick in a weak draft. The Fab Five brought the street ball style to college basketball and teams have been less fundamentally sound since then.

Anytime a school signs a talent freshman class..you can be rest assured that there will be guys like us to reference the past. The only hinderance that may come about is the fact that the Fab 5 won't be mentioned in an official way. Meaning you probably won't get many old Fab5 games on classic and the announcers during March probably won't reference them.

    out of all the fab 5 guys, i'm the most impressed with Jalen. he should be an example to these kids coming out of the city who think that they have to live the thug life to survive. he came out of HS as an A hole and a racist A hole at that and used his basketball ability to get him to were he is today. he is a very well respected commentator now and my opinion of him has taken a 180 turn since he was a freshman. good job J, you should be used as an example to young kids from the city
