3 weeks 4 days ago CRAIG ROH

What, no love for Craig Roh ?

6 weeks 15 hours ago this is the best post

I agree with all of this, well said.

They didn't count, but hey did exist .. as do the memories.

6 weeks 15 hours ago good points

All we can do is assume, but I didn't see well paid kids when I saw footage on the documentary, and I saw the cars .. didn't see one NEW car or anything, and I don't know how you get - NEVER FORGET - and, because I never want to see a second decade of darkeness.  This implies that I am looking forward to this, which is a stupid assumption.  You can remember the players, and what they did for the game ... and not go through it all again, thank you very much.  Who wants that, huh?

GO BLUE!

6 weeks 16 hours ago I agree with the banners

The Final Four runs must be erased, unfortunately.

But that doesn't mean we need to forget the players.

6 weeks 16 hours ago pocket money lol

That goes on everywhere, always has .. if you don't think that there are people who give a little to these kids, you're crazy.  Now, giving a duffle-bag full of 100,000 dollars like you hear some kids get, back then and now, that's different ..... and Jalen didn't receive that.  He was given money so he could eat, go to a movie, etc ... not so he could buy a car, or anything like that.  I am and will always be a defender of The Fab Five, they were so much of the kind of basketball player I ended up being...  I am righty, but out of desire of wanting to be exactly like Jalen Rose, I shaved my head, I wore black shoes and black socks......and shot and played basketball with my left hand.  This was far from what went on at UNLV, for example, and they weren't paid like the Fab Five 2 was - not even close.  I won't ever forget those guys.

6 weeks 16 hours ago who in the FAB FIVE...

...was paid to pick Michigan ?

I know what Chris Webber did was wrong, but that was 20% of the greatness, and to blame Jalen, Juwan, Jimmy, and Ray for what happened before the draft ... lets be serious here, the players that came after the Fab Five were the guys who were paid for their committment.  Remember that.

6 weeks 16 hours ago THE FAB FIVE

Was never really the problem!!!

Yea, we all know about Chris Webber, but the facts show how that went, and the real problem was with the so called FAB FIVE 2, full of busts and well paid college kids .................... lol.

Ugh, well paid and with nice vehicles.

 

We should all remember the Fab Five, never forget!!

6 weeks 1 day ago the cult of Team134

What do you mean, Mathis has drank the Kool-aid :)

6 weeks 1 day ago it has changed

It use to be, if you were a top guy from Ohio ... you were offered and went to Ohio State.  Period.  That's basically how it was, while he was there ... and yea, he would lose out on a guy here and there, but for the most part, they got who they wanted from Ohio.  Now, it seems, Urban offers and goes all out nationally, while the top guys from Ohio are told nay or yay, and for some reason, Urban has been telling a bunch of top Ohio kids nay in 2013; McCray, Butt, Taco, etc ... and it could easily come back to bite him in the ass.  It should.

6 weeks 1 day ago I love that we can add a guy

...and be all - cool, just another top tier 4* recruit.

I have had Ben Gedeon a commit to MI for awhile!!

 

7/8 spots left, and I am guessing it's all 4*+ commits from here on out.  I can't wait to see what we get via The Spring Game.
