Chris Webber’s ongoing beef with Jalen Rose has kept Michigan’s legendary “Fab Five” from reuniting

Chris Webber and Jalen Rose were recruiting rivals growing up in Detroit, but that didn't stop them from being close friends. They were so close, in fact, that Rose followed Webber to the University of Michigan, joining a legendary 1991 recruiting class that came to be known as "The Fab Five." Those five guys revolutionized college basketball and won a whole lot of games, but lost both their trips to the NCAA Final. The second of those losses came after Webber's infamous timeout call. And all those wins? They've been vacated because of a sprawling scandal that included a booster, a gambling ring, and payouts to a number of Wolverines players, including Webber.
So the "Fab Five" legacy is complicated, in large part because of Webber's mistakes. And that fact has fueled decades of beef between the former best friends. Webber has come across as sensitive and standoffish about his past, while Rose has perhaps been too aggressive in pushing Webber to apologize for his past. This beef between them has showed in TV programs, documentaries, and books, and it's only gotten worse.
This episode of Beef History tells the tale of a friendship turned feud, with the hope that airing things out might help put the "Fab Five" and their legacy back where they ought to be: together, and prominent in Michigan history.

[@Rusty-ev3mm]

The University of Michigan is the true antagonist. They were knowingly letting a criminal launder illegal money through their basketball program to get high level players. Ed Martin got all that money from an illegal gambling operation that he conducted at Ford auto plants. To launder the money he made, he'd entice high level recruits with the promise of money, then when they did play for Michigan, he'd loan them hundreds of thousands of dollars with the intent they'd pay him back after going pro.

[@nickp8186]

I can tell you Chris Webber’s side of the story right now: he accepted some money because he was a kid who didn’t fully appreciate the ramifications and then he accidentally made a mental mistake at the end of a nationally televised most important game of his career to that point despite being a peak athlete because he was mentally exhausted and like 20 years old at that point. He denied accepting the money because of the legal ramifications probably as the advice of council around him and then admitted it to the lie in order save his ass just before he felt it was going to become evident he lied. People and media have constantly beat up on him his whole adult life because it’s easy to do and they don’t fully appreciate the hard work it takes to become that level of an athlete. And he is therefore suspicious of media and people. He by nature is also probably a little introverted even if he forces himself to act differently in public. He doesn’t hate Rose but feels betrayed by him because of all the people who have told him to apologize and have criticized him, Rose is the most similar to him given their history. He expected Rose to be more empathetic and faces a dissonance in which he must decide if Rose truly does not understand where he is coming from or if Rose has sold him out. Chris has a hard time understanding the actions of Rose given Rose’s extroverted tendencies. Rose did not truly “sell out” Webber but was repeating things that were already said but given his job the book and personality traits it’s easy to see why Chris took it that way. Obviously Chris doesn’t feel like he should apologize because he feels misunderstood and doesn’t want to speak up because it’s not fair to him to be in a position where that’s the only way people will have more empathy for him despite it not being their business. This is not rocket science you guys. Also fantastic mini-doc btw!

[@christianlatham4491]

This chris’ burner account?

[@alexs.9903]

This is me rewatching, Chris owes an apology to Ed Martin and Coach Fisher. That's really it. That's the point Jalen made throughout though he could have been a bit understanding, but he has to talk about because hes on TV and what hes paid to do.

Sometimes it's just best to let things die and move on. Chris Webber is clearly not comfortable revisiting his past, and jalen rose seems to go out of his way to make sure people don't forget about Webber's past indiscretions. At this point I have to be honest and start questioning jalen rose's motives. Why is it so important to keep this Supposed legacy alive?

[@rhideflory]

C-Webb is comfortable in his own skin after having a successful pro career that is worthy of HOF consideration and should have been in before T-Mac was ever considered.. Jalen on the other hand, while not a scrub, is best known for his Fab Five career than pro career. C-Webb was a winner at each of his pro stops. He put the Sacramento Kings on the map and was the victim of a more heinous sports crime in the rigging of the 2002 WCF.

You're thinking Jalen has an issue but guess what that legacy meant alot to the others not the whole team played in the NBA coincidence that only Webber isnt in the doc but everyone else was?

All the other teams, players, announcers, broadcasters were against them. They changed everything. They started the baggy, long shorts. B4 that, players wore very short, tight shorts. They wore black socks, black sneakers, and shaved their heads. Everywhere u went, people were wearing Michigan gear. It was everywhere. Im a Uconn fan, cause i live in CT, but they were a must see.

It was discovered for the first time if a booster secretly paid good players hundreds of thousands, they were easier to recruit. This innovative recruiting had never been tried in college sports before.

That's because Jalen was his boy, and he probably knows who Webber really is. Webber always struck me as kind of soft and dishonest. But I'm a Michigan fan, so I'm going to embrace the guy who still loves Michigan and wants them to be successful.

He followed because they were friends...and both were angry at Duke. At that time Duke was only recruiting black kids from middle class families. Why? Less drama and more disciplined....is the stereotype. Duke's image was very important. Jalen made Chris a better player. Webber owes Coach Fisher.

Webber was signed sealed delivered to go to Michigan State then abruptly changes in mind. You can thank Martin giving the Fab5 plenty of illegal $$$$$$$.

What’s sad is that it may take something huge to even bring them to an understanding. It may be Michigan acknowledging their accomplishments, if only by a mention. The much more bleak scenario is a tragedy. I hope they reconcile while their coach is there to be a part.
