Having previously read the biography (by Mitch Albom) about the Fab Five of Michigan, I recently (on eBay) came across DVD doco based on the Fab Five's two year history together, and when it arrived in todays post, I did not hesitate in watching it this evening at my first opportunity.
Whilst I am sure most people know a bit about the history of the Fab Five, and especially for those who do not, or to you young pup's out there who have only been following basketball for the last 10 years or so, I would strongly recommend a viewing if you get a chance. I am positive you would be able to download it from your preferred torrent of your choosing.
It shows that for a team that never actually won the National Championship, how a group of young men could change the landscape of College Basketball forever, allowing/encouraging talented freshman to be able to come in and contribute straight away to a teams massive success, but at the same time, it intensely shows the double standard of College Basketball (which still remains to this day) which can allow individual University's and TV Networks to make billions of dollars from these kids' talents, whilst not having to give them a single dollar, safe in the knowledge that they are providing these kids with the opportunity to a) get an education, and b) highlight the kids talent sufficiently that they are able to earn money in the future, whether it be in the NBA, Europe, here in Australia or other parts of the world.
If you get a chance, have a look, I guarantee that if your a basketball fan, you will enjoy it immensely.
