The Fab Five consisted of Detroit natives Chris Webber (#1) and Jalen Rose (#5), Chicago native Juwan Howard (#3), and two recruits from Texas: Plano’s Jimmy King (#9) and Austin’s Ray Jackson (#84). They reached the 1992 and 1993 NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Championship games as both freshmen and sophomores. However, most of their wins and both of their Final Four appearances were vacated in the wake of a major scandal involving improper payments.
