I see how good the SEC is in football and baseball. We are nowhere near as good in basketball. Yes, Arkansas is a huge disappointment but with the revenue this conference brings in there is no reason all of our teams could not improve.
The SEC West has never been known much for basketball other than Arkansas (mainly between 1992-2000) However every one of the teams in the SECw has won that side of the SEC's title over the past 10 years. I think that makes it a pretty competative conference. I think it will be even better next year IMO.
And back to Arkansas they wont be a true contender until they do what Kentucky did and get them a high profile coach that can use his recources (The Bud, tradition, and Wal-Mart money) to bring top notch recruits to Fayetteville.

Alabama and Ole Miss are good teams. I think MSU wins the west this year. They are always in contention for the west. Arkansas, LSU, and Auburn are horrible.

This is true, but please understand, the west really sucks. The east is not very good but the west is terrible.
You really are confusing mediocrity with being good. The best team in the west (MSU) is a very mediocre team. They should be better than what they are.
The two biggest underachievers in the SEC West are Arkansas and LSU. Arkansas has a great tradition in basketball and LSU has a lot of good tradition too. Hell, the best basketball player to ever come out of the SEC West is from LSU and they do nothing with that.
