The Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball program is the intercollegiate men's basketball program of the University of Kansas. It is one of the oldest and one of the most successful programs in the history of college basketball. The program is classified in the NCAA's Division I and the team competes in the Big 12 Conference. Kansas played in the 2015 World University Games in South Korea as the United States representatives in July 2015. The games were broadcast on ESPNU. The Jayhawks went undefeated in the World University Games, winning the championship, giving the United States its first gold medal in World University Games men's basketball since 2005. The Jayhawks' first coach was the inventor of the game, James Naismith, who is the only coach in the program's history with a losing record. The Kansas basketball program has produced many notable professional players, including Clyde Lovellette, Wilt Chamberlain, Jo Jo White, Danny Manning, Raef LaFrentz, Paul Pierce, Nick Collison, Kirk Hinrich, Mario Chalmers, and Andrew Wiggins and coaches (including Phog Allen, Adolph Rupp, John McLendon, Dean Smith, Dutch Lonborg, Larry Brown, Roy Williams and Bill Self). Allen founded the National Association of Basketball Coaches and, with Lonborg, was an early proponent of the NCAA tournament.〔()〕 In 2008, ESPN ranked Kansas second on a list of the most prestigious programs of the modern college basketball era, behind only Duke.〔(ESPN.com College Basketball Program Prestige Rankings )〕 Kansas has the longest current streak of consecutive NCAA tournament appearances (26),〔(2009 NCAA Men's Final Four Records )〕 has the 2nd longest current streak of winning seasons (31 with Syracuse having 43), has the most winning seasons in Division I history (97), the most non-losing seasons (.500 or better) in NCAA history (100), the most conference championships in Division I history (58), the most First Team All Americans in Division I history (21), and the most First Team All American Selections in Division I history (28), is third in Division I all-time winning percentage (.722) and is second in Division I all-time wins (2,153).
