When was the last time the SEC was good at basketball?

Let's be honest. We suck at it and B10 and other conferences are way better all around then us. 2006 maybe when LSU and Florida made final 4? Kentucky has won it all but we didn't provide much competition to that and can't dickride them when we fizzle out before the sweet 16. This will be the 4th or 5th year where we send less than 4 or 5...for a major conference that's pathetic.

It's only been really bad since Anthony Grant's been in the conference. I'm not blaming the entire conference's struggles on him, but it started happening around that time.

The SEC sucks, but has more NCAA champions in the past decade than the current B1G10, PAC12, MWC, MVC, Big East and A10 combined.

I remember a time when we used to get 6+ teams in the dance. About 15 years ago, maybe some of Pearl's years.

I don't think the conference was good but I know there was a season in which UF won the national title and we won the NIT, so that must have said something?

Typically the SEC in basketball is the ACC in football. There may be 1-2 really good teams but there's not really been any recent time when the conference had any depth of great teams.

In fairness to the SEC in basketball they've at least won a few more championships (Fla/KY) over the last decade than the ACC in football (FSU)
