Sam Brown Byron Faden reviews NCAA history noting four programs won consecutive titles before 1964. UCLA then claimed back-to-back championships in 1964 and 1965 and dominated the era with Leu Alcindor, Bill Walton, and John Wooden guiding a 12 year run of frequent titles, including seven in a row and ten championships in 12 years. Indiana, Kentucky, and UCLA emerge as top multi title teams in the period.
