TIMEOUT! The Brain Fart That Ended Michigan's Fab Five Era

The closing moments of the epic clash between Michigan and North Carolina went down in history for all the wrong reasons, with Michigan star Chris Webber calling the most infamous timeout in basketball history and effectively putting the kibosh on that coronation.

It’s always hilarious when the NCAA wants to ban “wins” from the record books. But, they never want to return any of that $$$ they made off these kids😂

[@oluwalosemahmud2304]

💯 agree with you

[@abouttime2569]

Because there is no reason to return the money to anybody. There is a reason to strip away the wins though.

[@TheTitandog70]

The sad part is , if Michigan had won , Webber stays one more year try for repeat of championship , fab five stay together year longer. , It sad ending to great era

[@baron17]

Why would a surefire lottery pick repeat college?

[@KalmoK]

The timeout wasn't the issue, it was that booster getting caught and Webber lying under oath....

[@slimypickle19]

1993 UNC was the least star studded championship team in UNC history, such a shame Michigan couldn't close the deal considering all the future NBA talent they had.
Kudos to Dean Smith, what a legend.

Man my childhood. NCAA basketball used to be great stuff

[@sahm5071]

With the rule changes in the ncaa, their banners should go back up

[@nbapbaupdate8338]

Biggest mistake a TIME OUT 🤣😂😂

[@RudieObias]

I’m happy I picked UNC to win it all back in ‘93 😊

#GuruBasketballKieroSays Even though this, FAB 5 Legacy lives Forever

[@KalmoK]

That timeout wasn't the real bad ending tho, it was Webber lying to the jury under oath that he never got any money from that booster which resulted in NCAA banning them from games, stripped their finals banners and erased their existence from the history... imagine if NCAA actually had player salaries!

[@doctordef324]

This made kids NOT want the ball in the final seconds!!!!!😂

[@joshua.snyder]

Fab Five are soooo overrated. Fashion icons for basketball, but on the court...🤷

[@Maledeto]

secret base

[@ThrifterGuy]

Im confused about this story.
Were people saying that Webber was throwing the game?

[@butchapolinar2305]

CWebb is my Fav player next to MJ
i have all his Cards

[@Kitu74]

One..word...Fixed

[@timothypolanco8622]

Not the type of history a HOF wanna be apart of tbh 💯😆

[@kedrprao]

Every Hall of Famer has been part of bad losses. Bron has 2011 finals. Kobe has 3-1 blown lead. They even called Magic as TRAGIC Johnson

[@nbapbaupdate8338]

Jaylen Brown story your next video theScore 🙏🙏🙏

[@Koolasicewater]

You didn't mention the gods evened up the travel.

[@killakaine187]

I'll always blame Jalen for this. You gotta go and get the ball from Chris. I'll never blame Chris for this it's all on Jalen. Go Blue!

[@MrOctober44]

I love Webber, but this might be the biggest choke ever. He walks/travels which he got away with, then takes the time out. Wow

[@slide_drexler]

Stupid is as stupid does.🤭

[@Rensa803]

The documentary clearly showed that a time out was signaled to him!

[@robertbohnaker9898]

Everybody makes mistakes. Especially kids . Chris had a great pro career Who cares ?

[@jag8279]

Webber got paid to throw the game. That's why he did everything to turn the ball over. When you take money you need to do favours to the mob betting on the games

[@bigpasty1582]

The bench yelling " no timeout" in a jam packed stadium probably sounded a lot like "call timeout"...just saying 🤷 kind of dumb on the benches part even tho Webber should've known. It's hard in the moment
