How long would any current coaches last if they fell to mediocrity?

If any current SEC coach went 7-5 every year from this point forward, how many years would it take each before they were fired? Who are the most demanding of their coaches?
Auburn has shown we will fire a coach 2 years after a NC, although 2012 was insanely bad.
Bama expects success but I think Saban has a pretty long leash (plus can you easily fire a guy with a statue outside?)
Miles already has doubters so I wouldn't think he would last long.
What would be your best guesses? How would your coach fare?

There are three threads on this topic on the first page of the LSU Board... after one 8-4 season.

Miles will never be fired. For one, his buyout is too large. If the next two seasons were really bad he might retire though.

I think Pinkel would get 2 years of 7-5/6-6 type of football. There was talk of firing him after the 5-7 2012 season.

Pretty sure if Gus leaves it will be because he chose to. They pay more coaches not to coach there than they have on staff. Im sure thats getting expensive.

So if malzahn had another bad year he's gone? That would be 2 years removed from losing a nc game

7-5 is basically what Nutt averaged at Arkansas and we gave him 10 years. When we fired him, everyone said we were crazy and that we would never find a better head coach. That's how how Arkansas fans gained their reputation as "delusional". So, I find this entire exercise somewhat ironic.

Auburn hasn't shown shite. Chizik lost control of the team not only in wins and losses but respect from the players. They had no choice but to fire him. Had he gone 7-5 in 2012 and the team played hard with few external known discipline problems he might still be there.
