5 out of 5 stars Failures? I'd Disagree!   May 20, 2001
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

Some say that the Fab Five were failures. The say that with the level of talent they had and not being able to win a championship they underacheived. I consider making it to the Final Four two consecutive years is accomplishing quite a bit. How in the world could coach Steve Fisher handle the pressure of having the nation's basketball spotlight on him and the Fab Five? Mitch Albom does and abloslutely phenomenal job following the Michigan basketball team through the ups and downs of the years with the Fab Five. Mitch goes through what is was like for all five of the freshman before they decided to come to Michigan. If you are remotely interested in basketball, read this book! It is excellent and keeps you interested the entire way through! If you are not a basketball fan, read the book anyways; you will become one. READ IT!


5 out of 5 stars Fab Five - The Story of the Baggy Pants Revolution   May 16, 2001

The book covers the trials and tribulations of Michigan University's freshmen class of '91 (Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Ray Jackson and Jimmy King). A remarkablely indepth "inside" story, Albom dives into each players lead up to limelight and their reception to it.

This book talks about the University of Michigan's Men's basketball teams freshman class of 1992. They landed five of the best high school players in the country. The book follows the players from high school to Michigan. Then follows Michigan on their quest for a National Championship. Also it talks about the troubles a team with five talented freshman would have to go through and what coach, Steve Fisher should do about it.

by Mitch Albom This book talks about the University of Michigan Men's basketball team, freshman class of 1992. They landed five of the best high school players in the country. The book follows each player from high school to Michigan. Then follows Michigan on a quest for a National Championship. Also it talks about the troubles a team with five very talented freshman would have to go through. Older players mad because theyr're not playing enough and vice versa. And what Steve Fisher, the coach, should do.
