Bill Frieder

Bill Frieder

Bill Frieder was a 1964 BBA graduate of Michigan's business school and basketball coach at the University of Michigan (1981-1989) and Arizona State University (1989-1997). Frieder was fired by Michigan athletic director Bo Schembechler on the eve of the 1989 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament, and replaced by top assistant Steve Fisher, after announcing that he would leave Michigan for Arizona State at the end of the season. Schembechler famously announced that he wanted a "Michigan man" (Fisher was not planning on leaving) to coach Michigan. The Wolverines went on to win the tournament.
