I'm going to watch. I hope like hell that they don't glorify them, though I fear they will

I hope they do glorify them because they were awesome.

 

[NotsoyoungJeezy]

Yes...I love all of their national championships...

 

[playmakr]

A lot of fuss over guys with no rings.

 

[NotsoyoungJeezy]

Someone needs to tell Jalen Rose that old people in Florida were wearing black socks with shorts long before he was born.

 

[WTSooner]

A lot of fuss over guys with no rings.

That is pretty silly. What they did, on and off the court, was pretty amazing. Rings or not.

 

[Romulus]

Great story and show

 

[Max Power]

Cosigned, i really enjoyed it

This. Just finished watching.

I didn't realize those guys were so highly ranked (individual recruiting rankings). 4 top 11 players? That will never happen again.

What they did off of it made the story.

Did you watch college basketball in the early 90s?

Maybe, but it probably depends on which recruiting rankings and as long as Calipari is coach I think it can happen. In 09 they had 4 guys in the top 20, 5 in the top 40 including the 2 top players in the country John Wall and Run DM Cousins. Also had 5 1st round draft picks from that team that year.

Great stuff by ESPN btw, for those saying a lot of talk about nothing I was in middle school at the time of the Fab 5 and yes they were that big and had that big of an impact.

 

[Sooner_In_MI]

I thought it was pretty damn good.

Sure. I saw them lose to better teams both years. I don't see specials on either of those teams running on ESPN. Darn those teams, I guess if they would have had all their wins stripped and acted like clowns, they too, would get ESPN specials.

Me=yawn about Fab 5

edit: I don't doubt the the special was entertaining and got high ratings, which in the end is what matters and why ESPN ran it.

You are probably the only person I know that would try to argue NC being better than Michigan.
