28 â *Kansas, 1990-2017 (Roy Willams and Bill Self)
Kansas has played in the last 35 NCAA tournaments since 1990, but its 2018 appearance, which ended in the Final Four, was vacated five years later due to use of a player, Silvio De Sousa, who was ruled ineligible retroactively. Williams coached the first 14 seasons of the run, including national runner-up finishes in 1991 and 2003. Self led the Jayhawks to the first of his two national championships at the end of the 2007-08 season (the other title season was 2021-22).
