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

Is it unreasonable to expect we at least challenge for an SEC title every 5-10 years in EVERY sport?

I know nothing about the men's tennis team.

But I looked at their website and the current coach, Jeff Brown, has been here since 1998. From 1998 to 2013, LSU finished the season ranked in the Top 25, 12 times in his 16 years here.

In those same 16 years, LSU has finished 3rd or better in the SEC 8 times.

Finishing 3rd or better in the conference is challenging for a SEC title, no? I am asking, because I really dont know how the tennis standings work

Also, they have been to the NCAA Tourney 15 times in his 16 years, while getting past the 1st round 13 of those 15 times.
