1989 Michigan vs. Seton Hall

Prior to the NCAA tournament, Michigan coach Bill Frieder announced he was heading to Arizona State after the season. That did not sit well with Michigan athletic director Bo Schembechler, so he fired Frieder. Steve Fisher, Frieder’s top assistant with no collegiate head coaching experience, was then appointed interim head coach. From there, Glen Rice put Michigan on his back, scoring 184 points over six games to earn Most Outstanding Player honors. In the title game against Seton Hall, Rice had 31 points. However, it was Rumeal Robinson who hit two free throws with three seconds left in overtime to push Michigan past the Pirates.
