Steve Fisher is the first and only head coach to have led the team to an NCAA Tournament championship, doing so in 1989.
[3] He also led the team to six other NCAA Tournament appearances, including two runner-up finishes in 1992 and 1993, but the '92 and '93 Final Fours were vacated as punishment for the University of Michigan basketball scandal.
[4] Before Fisher, Bill Frieder had led the team to four consecutive tournament appearances.
[5] Seven coaches have led the team to Big Ten Regular Season Championships: E. J. Mather, George Veenker, Ozzie Cowles, Dave Strack, Johnny Orr, Frieder, and John Beilein.
Brian Ellerbe led the team to a Big Ten tournament championship, but that victory was vacated in 2002 in wake of the scandal.
