Herman for 5 years or Jimbo for 15?

For those of us who like Herman, we have to concede that there's pretty much no chance that he stays at LSU for 25 years. That is just not realistic. So, if he bounces, he'll likely do it to the NFL or a college blue blood within the next 5-6 years.
Jimbo, however, is a bit older and is almost definitely at his last stop unless he gets fired like Lessfter 10+ years.

Herman, easily

Easy, let's get Herman for 5, then when he leaves get Jimbo for 10

Herman could be here longer than 5 years, it just depends.
Not sure why people just assume every elite coach wants to go pro.
Those grown men with nasty attitudes really gonna go for the kissy huggy stuff? (sarcasm)

Jimbo, however, is a bit older and is almost definitely at his last stop unless he gets fired like Lessfter 10+ years.
So, for those of us who want Herman (I think he has the higher ceiling, but the lowest floor, whereas Jimbo is more safe--he has the higher floor, but the lower ceiling.
I loved Les and defended him longer than most. But I always knew that the best he could ever do was to put us in a place where we finished 10-2/9-3 every year, but then went on a championship run when everything came together, either with a special QB or just a special group( like '11).
I think Jimbo--at worst--will extend that and probably be in a position to win championships a little more often because of how well he recruits and develops QBs.

There's no chance any coach will stay anywhere that long anymore. So what? I'm okay with Herman staying only 5 years if he wants to go to the NFL, and I don't see any successful LSU coach leaving for another college team.

Jimbo is 50. Herman is 41.
Nick Saban is 65 and at the top of his game. Too many teens and early 20s dudes on this board think 50 (Jimbo) is old for a coach.
I have reasons for Jimbo because he's more of a known commodity. NC ring as OC, NC ring as HC, playoff as HC, he knows these stomping grounds, proven recruiter.
But it's a 1A vs 1B with Jimbo/Herman IMO. There are no guarantees, you hire the resume.

Herman, then "Coach in Waiting" Aranda takes the helm for another 5-10.
Posted on 11/25/16 at 3:06 am to Hot Carl
How do you know Herman will be here 5 years and Jimbo would be here 15?

Let Herman build the program up for 5 years, win a championship along the way, get back to national recognition and then we pluck another big name away from somewhere..... versus hiring jimbo for 10 years and him going stagnant after 5, then have to fire him with a huge buyout?!?!?! Herman anyday!!!!

Herman, and jimbo is a few years away from being canned at fl st. He is on a miles like downward path having lost 7 games in less than 2 years despite having more talent than all he lost to.

If Herman leverages LSU for an NFL job after a national championship, we say please and thank you.
Posted on 11/25/16 at 8:16 am to Hot Carl
Herman. Think about it. If Herman gets us a Natty, that would show the world that it was not JUST Saban and not JUST Miles, but it was LSU that produced Natty's with 3 coaches in a row.
So, think about how easy it would be to lure a coach over to LSU with that resume.

You want another 15 years of Les Miles?
