2013 - UAB - Loss 53-52
2012 - Marshall - Loss 74-56
2011 - Rice - Loss 58-57
2010 - Central Florida - Loss 69-53
2009 - Houston - Loss 85-76

2005 - Rice - Loss 63-47
2004 - Nevada - Loss 75-60

That's a ridiculous streak. It ends Friday.

The last SMU head coach to win a conference tournament game was Robert Lineburg

i agree with the sentiment
but we won in 2006 a first round game vs Rice

Ah, you're right. Misread the history section (loss to Rice in the regular season right before the first round match).

So 9 game losing streak.

Well I have great news for everyone. I will not be making the trip to Hartford so therefore a conference tourney win is assured. We are 0-4 in the 4 tourneys I have attended and therefore a bona fide tourney jinx. I'll never forget losing in Fresno to Hawaii on the first afternoon and then wondering what the hell I was going to do in Fresno for 3 days.

I will however be in attendance wherever and whenever we go dancing!

So Tubbs got one, but none under Doh or Brown so far

I'm ready for Jimmy Tubbs to longer be an answer to an "SMU hoops bar trivia" question.
