UL-Monroe – 7


Back when Daddy Dale was trying to convert Football fans into basketball fans, NLU had 21 consecutive winning seasons in a row (1961-1982). This was back when Lenny Fant was the coach. ULMWarhawks.com

Every year they had to paint the new total on a banner they had in Ewing Colosseum(now Fant-Ewing). After Fant left they hired his top assistant, Mike Vinning. He had a .500 record his first year so they had to repaint the banner to something like "22 consecutive non-losing seasons."

Only reason I remember that is because I saw an interview with Fant talking about DB bragging on LSU having four winning seasons in a row.

Calvin and Kenny Natt helped Fant win a lot of those games. When I was in high school I caught a C. Natt led NLU team against a Robert Parish led Centenary team.
