To change the question slightly what Aussies other than Stattman have won an NCAA title?
Off the top of my head I can only think of Justin Brown (2001 @ U Conn).

NCAA title or NCAA basketball title?
NCAA is played over twenty different sports.

Justin Brown was a red-shirt when UConn won in 1999.
Mangok Mathiang was a red-shirt when Louisville last won in 2013 although they were later stripped of that title.
Ryan Thompson was with Uconn in 2004 when they won.
Now Kody Stattmann as a freshman with Virginia in 2019.
That is it.
Andrew Gaze probably the only australian who has come close to winning an ncaa title and playing a meaningful role on his team
Ummmmm what about the South Aussie, Luke Schenscher!!!! Like Gaze, didn't win but was a starter and almost had double double vs Uconn in the championship game. 19 pts and 12 boards in the final 4 to boot.

Kabbadi, gaelic football, hurling, chess, ice hockey, hot dog eating etc etc
Yep so Luke Schenscher statically inferior to gaze in scoring but georgia also lost by 9 and seton hall only 1 so Gaze was closer

Curling is one I can't recall the green and gold dominating. Kabaddi is another .......
Don't forget Jess Foley at Duke playing a NCAA title game
