1978/79 season to 1992/93 season under Dale Brown was a fun time to be an LSU basketball fan. Averaged 21.5 wins a season, a .67 winning percentage, made 2 final fours and 2 regional finals.


That's why I always bristle at the moronic posts of "LSU is not a basketball school" as a rational to accept mediocrity. During that time period getting into the PMAC (or just the "AC" for most of that time) was the toughest ticket in town. Students used to camp outside on the ramps before games. The games were rocking and loud! So to suggest suggest LSU can't have a good basketball is asinine. LSU wasn't a "baseball school" either until the late 80's (if that).

It takes finding the right HC and a willingness to not accept mediocrity. I'm not saying that's easy. LSU has been trying to find the right HC for nearly 40 years (they may or may not have had him in Wade), but this place could be a "basketball school" again because at one point, it was!

My favorite moment of the ‘78-‘79 season was when we lowered the SEC Champs banner during the Alabama game before the game was over (that game was the clincher). That was the loudest I ever heard the PMAC. Alabama coach CM Newton got furious and then the crowd went ballistic.
