Because baseball is bigger in the south and like half the schools around the country dont give 2 shits about it because the season starts when they have snow on the ground.

I think Pierce is good, not great. People don't realize what mess he took over and the fact that he got Texas to Omaha almost immediately after. He deserves at least some credit for that.
He'll always be a threat in regionals (14-2 record) and supers (7-5 record), but his teams have been awful in Omaha (3-6, with all 3 wins coming during one season and 0-3 in opening games). Also apparently none of the players like him, so that's great lol

I think Pierce is a mediocre coach and I don't like the position he's put us in heading into the SEC. But yeah, LSU has tons baseball money for some reason. What is that reason?
LSU has been baseball royalty since the Skip Bertman era. Even if it didn't always translate to nattys, we've been a consistent leader in attendance and usually sit near the top of baseball rankings. 7 CWS titles puts LSU in 2nd place all time to USC, but their titles were mostly in the 60's and 70's. LSU also travels better than any team to the CWS. Omaha is considered LSU's north campus.

What is that reason?

Skip Bertman brought a tradition of winning here.

Because Skip gave a shite about it. And LSU has given a shite about it since the 1990's.
