Our coach left one of your "blue bloods" to be here...but if none of the other logic has worked, I'm sure I'm wasting my breath

Not exactly. Are you familiar where Audie Garrido coached before Texas? Fullerton was an absolute juggernaut in the early 90’s. The Mark Kotsay led team that rolled through the Box in the early 90’s is still the best college baseball team I saw play LSU.

Blue Bloods of College Baseball
We have some ignorant fans
The point of this is how other people or programs perceive us

Miami is definitely fading, haven't won a natty since 2001 and lost their regional to UT.

Some argue that Stanford is a blue blood, yet they weren’t even mentioned in that article.

All you have to do is google blue bloods of College baseball and there are a ton of sites that has us listed. I find it funny that we still have fans that are insecure about it. Everybody else in the country says we are but we have fans that still doubt

Take the L, it looks good on you.
They mentioned three traditional Pac10 teams… not Stanford.
Sorry, broooooo.

...but they are a blue blood. And so is LSU.

I can except that. All I care about is the people saying we are not when in fact the whole country perceives us as one

How true! 
I still can’t believe we have people that don’t think we belong as a blue blood of College Baseball.

Omaha definitely feels the economic impact of our absence when we aren’t there.
LSU has been a staple since the 80s. That’s Blue Blue.

LSU baseball is one of the luckiest coincidences in sports, that I can recall.
Skip started building a good program here about the same time ESPN came into existence. ESPN scrambled to get any "sport" they could find, I remember watching college lacross (that's the first time I heard of Johns Hopkins, they'd play UNC, Syracuse etc). Beach Volleyball with Karch Kiraly (a gold medalist from the 1984 Olympics), Kickboxing, etc.
The College World Series was one of these obscure things ESPN would broadcast, because they didn't have access to major sports yet.
At the same time, LSU football and basketball both collapsed. Curley Hallman destroyed the football team, and the NCAA probation on Lester Earl took out basketball- which until then, was in the top tier with Kentucky and Arkansas in the SEC, and nationally prominent. So suddenly we had NOTHING... but baseball was also suddenly becoming a national power, and showing up on ESPN. Fans packed the Box, and made the trip to Omaha like it was a big bowl game, which was something that never happened in college baseball... and it was all broadcast on cable.
So, we became the premier team in the sport. Nevermind the fact that we were new on the scene, or that Miss State was the established power in the SEC, or that UGA won the CWS the year before we did. State didn't have the brand name from other sports, and UGA (and other big schools) didn't have the fan support.
From there, it all snowballed.
