NCAA at 75 - College Basketball

50. Michigan, 1989

Members of the Fab Five were only beginning to build their reputations as high school stars when Michigan embarked on its 1989 title run. Steve Fisher was on the bench during the Wolverines' run to the Final Four in Seattle, just not in the seat he occupied during the regular season. Head coach Bill Frieder shocked Michigan by announcing he was leaving Ann Arbor for Arizona State just before the tournament began. Fisher was thrust into emergency interim duty, and behind Glen Rice's 184 points -- a tournament record that still stands -- the Wolverines captured their first and only national championship. -- Conor Nevins
