re: It just seems like Jimbo is the guy

"Potentially", if he doesn't want to move anywhere else. If Herman did become the LSU HC and do great things, the "Herman to the NFL" talk would become a yearly thing. Jimbo on the other hand is already the HC of a big time program. If his ultimate desire would be to go to the NFL, then he wouldn't need to use LSU as the stepping stone. He could make that jump straight from FSU.
Assuming both would be equally as successful, I think LSU would have a MUCH better chance of keeping Jimbo around longer than Herman. Other than the NFL, I don't think there are any college jobs that are SIGNIFICANTLY better than LSU (or FSU really). A coach can get paid well and can reach the peak of the sport at either school. Plus, there is no big alma mater (like Michigan with Miles) to potentially tug at Jimbo's heart-strings (If Jimbo wanted to be the HC at Samford they would fire their coach today to make it happen!)

because Jimbo would lose more games. He can't even win the ACC

I think people are overplaying the "herman to the NFL talk". doesn't Herman kiss his players before the game? Doesn't he do the "Dabo funky monkey" dance thingy? What sort of universe do you live in that makes you think that is what the NFL is looking for? Some coaches style obviously just can't cross over to the NFL

Maybe Herman wants to stay in College football. More of family atmosphere and he has a wife and young children who would probably like to be connected to community and loving fan base. NFL is cutthroat business you have so much less control of who your players are and the players make tons more money than coaches. There isn't a big discrepancy today in HC in college vs NFL
