re: NOT a big deal, but...Men's Tennis finished last in SEC, women's 12th, why?

As stated earlier - indoor facility on the way. I spoke to Jeff Brown (men's coach) a few months back and I believe he said we were the only SEC school NOT to have an indoor facility and he just couldn't compete for recruits w/ that negative. Also, his team is pretty young this year and should be pretty solid next year w/ a few decent recruits coming in (again, the promise of the new indoor facility helping already).
Women's team is usually middle of the road, but again - recruiting hurt by facilities. Should improve as well, but don't even know who new coach is for the gals.

Facilities certainly a big factor, but women having NEVER won an SEC title and Men once is IMHO not acceptable overall. I have long said if we have a sport we should be competitive in our conf, period, NEVER winning it is not good enough for any sport at any school, especially over such a long period of time. Clearly, I think with the new tennis facilties we will be much better, but does not explain
SEC Mens tennis, 78 years, LSU won ONE title
SEC Women's tennis 77 years, LSU won ZERO titles
155 chances in just our own conf and only one title....plain bad

Excuses, excuses, excuses. Maybe the SEC Network will finally put the spotlight on LSU's failing sports and make a real change for the better.
