With Zion Williamson already the most talked about player in the nation and Duke rocketing to the top of the AP poll in Week 2, the comparisons have already begun. The Blue Devils are being held up alongside the gold standard for elite recruiting classes: Michigan's "Fab Five" freshmen of 1991-92.
In the fall of 1991, Wolverine head coach Steve Fisher welcomed an incoming class consisting of Juwan Howard, Chris Webber, Jimmy King, Jalen Rose and Ray Jackson. Michigan promptly reached both the 1992 and 1993 national title games, losing first to Duke and then to North Carolina.
