No, there have been 7 total teams to do it, IU being the LAST to do it. Of note, UCLA did it 4 times in the 60's and 70's. The San Francisco Dons with Bill Russell and KC Jones were the first to do it in 1956, followed in 1957 by the NC Tarheels, who beat Kansas and Wilt Chamberlain in a triple OT game.
