If Jimbo wanted to be at LSU, he would already be there. Les Miles was fired in 2016. Jimbo CHOSE A&M in 2017. Are we to believe LSU, with a job opening readily available, wanted Ed O over Jimbo? Or are we to believe they never contacted Jimbo's agent!? It can only be one of these two and BOTH are absurd! They would have given anything to have Jimbo in 2017 just like they would give anything to have him now. HE TOLD THEM NO BECAUSE A&M IS THE BETTER JOB!! How do we know? We know because elite coaches like Jimbo speak with their actions not their words.
You don't seem to know what was going on at LSU at the time. They wanted Herman and had a deal in place (or at least, a deal in principle). He reneged to go to t.u. so they went with Ed O. They had to move very fast to save face. It wasn't that LSU wanted Ed O. over Jimbo, but they wanted Herman over everyone else, and the situation at FSU wasn't as dire as it was a year later. I doubt Jimbo was even seriously considered at all by LSU and I doubt he even considered taking the position if offered. There's no evidence that I'm aware of that he turned it down.
A&M didn't even come online until after the UCLA game, the first game of the 2017 season. Before that, it was strictly message board fodder.
For now, I don't think Jimbo goes to LSU for what is essentially a lateral move, but your post is all wishful thinking.
