Yep, part of the issue was Dale de-emphasized the SEC tourney fairly early on when it was re-instated in 1979. He would not put much into it unless he felt LSU needed to win some games to get in the dance. I did not agree with that but that was his stance.

Still we had some good teams under Brady and one under Trent that were capable of winning it but never even made the Finals.

One of my best LSU sports memories was going to the one SEC tourney final we did win in 1980. Dwayne Scales went off in the second half and we beat those Bowie and Kyle Macy Cats in that thrilling final in Birmingham.

I think we've only even made the finals twice since if I'm not mistaken.
