Simply put the fans have to demand more. The bigger the fan demand for a quality product in a particular area drives the aggresiveness of the media in that area. The agressiveness of the media puts pressure on the people in charge of the product to do something to make a quality product.
Do you think Auburn fans were going to sit back and allow Chizik to return after going 3-9 just because he won a recent championship? Nope. Not going to happen.
Do you think LSU, Florida, South Carolina, and Georiga fans are satisfied with just having a good season. Keep in mind these are teams that were a play or two away from playing for a SEC or BCS championship. They'll take it, but next year you better win.
Texas A&M had a very good season this year, but I can ganruntee you they want more.
Ole Miss, Vandy, and Miss State have all improved under their current head coaches, but they want more.

I think nails it. Look at the quotes Bielema gave for why he decided to come to Arkansas. He specifically said that football simply wasn't a priority. The fans are going to have to demand success.
