Are you serious? Look at all the threads complaining about the state of the program and dissecting every single play. If anything a lot of ppl on here are willing to settle for mediocrity.
If this was at Ohio State, Les Miles would have been fired already. Ohio State fans wanted Tressel Canned after the USC and Purdue this year and still constantly complain about his lack of recruiting and not closing on the big recruits, and the team won the conference outright and won the ROSE BOWL. At LSU, Les Miles 2 years has been a dud since his brain child buckeye Bo Pelini left. If that had happened at OSU, I promise you Les would be looking for a job. I bet you that even with one more mediocre year at LSU, Les will be back for 2011 although his seat will be hot

A very small percentage of idiots wanted Tress fired after these games, FWIW. Most just wanted (and still do) him to hire a bright, good OC and give up play-calling duties. But I know of no rational Buckeye fan that wants him fired.

He recruits well. I guess you're right about closing, but typically, OSU has outstanding classes, mainly because he's good early (this year's is kind of weak, but the last two were ranked #1 by one of the recruiting services, and next year's is expected to be very high).
And a lot of Les Miles' job security would depend (I guess ironically) on the Michigan game. If he wins that consistently, and the Bucks are at/near the top of the Big 10 consistently, he'd get at least the amount of time he's getting at LSU.

Not with that monster buyout (thanks Skip)

Only complaint I've heard is for a good OC. Sweatervest has won the Big 10 pretty much every year since taking over and more importantly dominates Michigan. What sane fan would want him gone?

Unfortunately yes. If he is fired we will have to settle for another middle of the pack 2 million dollar coach since LSU cant afford to pay the buyout and bring in a top tier coach.

You must be very young. Because when I lived in Columbus a few years back, OSU coach Cooper overstayed his welcome. It took a few years to replace him.
