For LSU I nominate 1986.
SEC Champions football
Final 4 Basketball
CWS Baseball
Basketball had a strange season with a chicken pox outbreak on the team and we barely snuck into the tourney as an 11 seed. Got fortunate that we were put in the Southeast region which just so happened to be hosted at the PMAC and went on a huge run to become the lowest seed to ever make the final 4.

*Orange bowl beat down of Oklahoma which gave Arkansas a NC for the 1977 FB season.

2010 for the Gamecocks
Baseball won Omaha
Football finished 1st in the East to play in Atlanta
Basketball continued its seemingly annual tradition of not making the NCAAT

1998-99
Baseball: 36-20
Football: BCS National Champions
Basketball: 21-9, 1st in SEC East. Lost in NCAAT Second Round
While the other two sports were fairly strong that year, football obviously carried the weight.

Calendar Year or Academic Year?

I'm guessing most would think Academic Year.

If that's the case, there aren't a lot to choose from for A&M with all three programs having good to great years in the same academic year. The main limiting factor is basketball.
Looking at things and weighing them appropriately, it's a tossup between two time periods.
1986-1987
Football: Won SWC
Basketball: Won SWC Tournament
Baseball: Regional
2015-2016
Football: 8-5
Basketball: Won SEC, Sweet 16
Baseball: Won SEC Tournament, Super Regional
Amazingly we finished 5th in the 2013 Director's Cup despite failing to make the NCAA Tournament in basketball and barely making a regional in baseball.

Florida has everyone beat on this one.
Posted on 4/5/20 at 7:11 pm to lsudave1
Texas would probably be 2002-03
Football - Finished 11-2 and No. 6 ap (won Cotton Bowl)
Basketball - Final 4
Baseball - 3rd in CWS
They actually might have beat Stanford for the director's cup that year
Only took 15 years to have probably the worst big 3 performance in in school history during 2016-17
Football - 5-7 lost to Kansas
Basketball - won 11 total games, dead last in conference
Baseball - DIdn't make it out of the regional (they were at least half-decent, though)

I would've thought this could've also been 06-07
Football: 9-4
Basketball: sweet 16 with best seed in school history, and won @KU
Baseball: Regional host, super regional

3 seed in 2016 as well.
2006 Holiday Bowl is still the worst bowl loss in A&M history.

It cannot be overstated how good of a job Billy Gillispie had to do in order to make that program what it was when he left.
