UM will host public forum on Fab Five

Ann Arbor -- Jimmy King, Jalen Rose and Ray Jackson will highlight a roundtable discussion this fall on the impact, culturally and athletically, of Michigan's famed "Fab Five" basketball team.

The roundtable, sponsored by Michigan's College of Literature, Science and the Arts, will take place Oct. 8 at a campus site to be determined. The event will be ticketed, but open to the public and free.

"I'm hoping to have or start a public discussion on the University of Michigan campus about the history of this team," said Yago Colas, a UM professor of comparative literature and humanities who also does research in sports studies.
