Vincent Landrum (1992-95) was one of the staples of the D.W.A. (Defense With Attitude) that helped put McNeese football back on the map.
Â
The 1994 McNeese Defensive Player of the Year, he was a two-time first team all-SLC performer (1994 and 1995) while also garnering first team all-Louisiana accolades in 1994 in addition to earning all-America honors by the Associated Press and The Sports Network. In 1995, he garnered all-America honors by Walter Camp.

He earned team MVP honors in 1994 and was named the league's defensive MVP that same season after he recorded 153 total tackles, currently the sixth most in a single season in school history.

As a freshman he was a part of a Cowboys' team that won their first-ever postseason playoff game, and as a senior in 1995, helped the team to its very first semifinal appearance.

During his career, the Cowboys won two SLC championships and compiled a 42-11 record including a remarkable 23-2 mark in league play.
